In this role, I worked with a team of students to support the Olin College 2020 Virtual Summer Institute. The Summer Institute aims to support the design of student centered learning experiences for faculty teams engaged in curricular change efforts at their own institutions. More information on the Olin Summer Institute can be found here: http://www.olin.edu/collaborate/collaboratory/summer-institute/.

I worked with the student team to read and understand texts on the current state of engineering education and also pedagogy more broadly. The literature review we created and provided for Summer Institute participants is linked to this posting. Our team of 4 students also designed and presented a workshop on Imaginative User Design and supported a workshop on Participatory Design at the Summer Institute.

Worked with a team of two other students to design and teach a student led course in Advanced Algorithms in Spring 2020 at Olin College to an undergraduate class of over 10 students. Activities included the design and creation of a syllabus, course plan, and assignments as well as the operational tasks of managing the class, delivering lessons, and providing support to students. We also worked quickly to transition our course to an online format when Olin moved to online learning in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
