Overview

Carrying on the previous objectives of the International Society for Engineering Pedagogy Special Tracks @ EDUCON Conferences, ITEP’xx , ITEP’16 @ EDUCON 2016 aims to offer an open discussion and a reflection in the use of Information Technologies in Engineering Education and their appropriate Pedagogy. It also intends to foster the involvement in continuing education, bridging the gap between higher education and learning on the workplace by focusing the IT use in lifelong learning and training. At K-12 level this session intends to evaluate the progress of IT in fostering the engagement of younger people in the field of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
