How a Successful Idea Traveled: Implementing the EngineeringTeaching Portfolio Program at University of Florida

摘要

The paper describes the successful implementation at the University of Florida of the Engineering Teaching Portfolio Program, first developed at University of Washington, Seattle. The local version of the program (ETP-UF) was realized as a graduate student program of the Society of Women Engineers, Gainesville Student branch and supported by the Dean of Graduate Studies in the College of Engineering. The first offering of ETP-UF took place during the last half of the Fall 2004 semester, and a second offering is advertised for Spring 2005.
