Abstract :
The FIE 2004 theme panel brings together a group of experienced educators to address the two key elements of the conference theme: educational partnerships and distance learning. Drawing on their experience and continuing involvement in these areas, the panelists will offer insights and engage the attendees in a discussion of likely challenges and new approaches for expanding educational opportunities in engineering, technology, and computing. Addressing these challenges will require engineering educators and institutions to find new solutions and to continue pushing forward the frontiers. This panel continues FIE´s role as a leading international forum for sharing new ideas, technologies, and education research results.
