Re: Engineering "Educator" Degree Programs

Yes I am having to create an economic ROI analysis or something to that effect.

There is a large demand. People have not been able to articulate what it should look like until recently.

The degree isn't shop class, but an "integrative stem" teaching degree. Engineering is a highly stem integrated discipline.

Front page article in this weeks NSTA journal was about this very topic.

The problem schools are having is there are a lot of courses on the books that can't be taught, so they don't start the class, and in turn there is no teacher demand. Chicken & Egg.
