Applications are open for Teaching Computation With MATLAB, held in-person at Carleton College in Minnesota, October 22-24, 2023.
Deadline: June 16th (apply to save your spot)
At these 3-day, peer-led workshops, educators work with their colleagues and MATLAB experts to develop and revamp their computational courses, whether in-person, remote or hybrid. Hundreds of educators have attended these MATLAB workshops and developed impactful curricula for use in their courses.
In the workshop, participants will
- Develop Curriculum: Upgrade curriculum with new computational content
- Work with Mentors: Participate in coaching sessions with educator peers and MATLAB experts
- Publish: Develop a teaching activity for peer-review and public hosting, enabling citing and reuse
- Build Community: Network with educators teaching programming and discipline skills combined
- Learn MATLAB teaching tools: Learn how to embed MATLAB tools – such as MATLAB Live Scripts, MATLAB Online, MATLAB Grader, and MATLAB Onramp – in courses to improve student learning
Workshop conveners will review applications and send acceptances in July 2023.
