Hundreds of Resources Highlighted During IEEE Education Week

IEEE members throughout the globe celebrated IEEE Education Week from 2 to eight April. The annual occasion highlights instructional alternatives offered by greater than 75 IEEE working models, areas, sections, and technical societies.

This yr it included occasions, on-line assets, and particular presents on instructional services. The week culminated with a web-based quiz that awarded greater than 200 digital badges to contributors who accurately answered questions on IEEE instructional choices.

“IEEE Education Week shows the collective impact IEEE has on lifelong learning and education at every level,” says Jamie Moesch, managing director of IEEE Educational Activities. “From preuniversity STEM programs and university offerings to continuing professional education courses and tutorials, IEEE Education Week highlights the many ways to engage with education across the enterprise. The week was about bringing these resources together in one place and making sure our members and volunteers know about all of the amazing educational opportunities available to them.”

“Thanks to our partnership with IEEE Technical Activities and its many societies and councils, IEEE Education Week was able to showcase resources for our members that can help them enhance their skills and get ahead of the curve in the ever-changing landscape of engineering and technology,” says Rabab Ward, vice chairman of IEEE Educational Activities.

On-demand occasions on the local weather, AI, and 3D printing

IEEE Education Week was an effective way to focus on the easy-to-use, free assets obtainable for members to assist encourage and train the following era about engineering.

Below are a number of of the occasions held, most of that are accessible for on-demand entry:

• Climate Change: IEEE’s Role in Bringing Technology Solutions to Meet the Challenge, hosted by Saifur Rahman, IEEE president and CEO.
• Resolving Cross-Hospital Variation Effects in AI-Based Pathology Image Analysis, introduced by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society.

IEEE Sri Lanka Section attracts a whole bunch of attendees

A reside, in-person two-day occasion introduced by the IEEE Sri Lanka Section was the primary of its form and certainly one of this yr’s most profitable and largest celebrations. Lakshan Madhushanka, the part’s pupil actions chair, helped set up and information a staff of greater than 50 IEEE volunteers, who represented all 21 pupil branches within the nation. Hundreds of college college students and academics attended the occasion, which featured panel discussions and workshops.

Lesson plans, on-demand webinars, and persevering with training

The IEEE Education Week web site highlights assets shared by IEEE organizational models. They embody:

“Education is the foundation for a successful future and should never be taken for granted,” says Chi-Un “Leon” Lei, chair of the IEEE Region 10 Educational Activities committee. “IEEE Educational Activities offers its members the means to excel in advancing technologies and communities. The IEEE Education Week Ambassador Program helps to provide every member in the region the necessary support to embrace opportunities for learning and personal development.”

Planning underway for subsequent yr

Next yr’s IEEE Education Week is scheduled for 14 to twenty April.
