2022-12-09 Virginia Grande
Friday 9 December 9.00 - 10.00 in this Zoom room (PhD students stay on an extra hour, by separate invitation)
Role Modeling in Computing and Engineering Education: A Framework to Support Reflection All educators are potential role models for their students. This is so regardless of the length of our teaching experience (yes, teaching assistants are included!), whether we are aware of what we are role modeling and whether we intend for this to be imitated.
The main outcome of Virginia Grande’s PhD thesis is a framework that supports reflections on role modeling from these perspectives of awareness and intention, what one can model and the main actors in this phenomenon. In this seminar we will discuss the complexity of role modeling in engineering education, what our role in this is, and how we as educators can apply the result of these reflections to our own disciplines and contexts, discuss with colleagues, and guide our students in similar reflections.

Post-seminar message from Virginia Grande:¶
Dear all, Thank you so much for being at the seminar today. You really made me reflect and see my research and the work of others from different angles, which I always appreciate. I’m thankful for your attention and your interest, and more than happy to discuss with you should you like to try this kind of reflection on role modeling in your contexts.More personally, thank you for welcoming in what felt like such a safe space. I felt very comfortable with you. It felt perfectly fine to be vulnerable, which I find so uncommon (and so needed!) in academia. You transmit this support for each other, and I particularly like that PhD students voices are part of this and very much encouraged to participate as the same level as more senior staff.Great role modeling as a group :)With my thanks and wishing you a very nice weekend,Virginia
