Dr. Froyd Workshop at IRE



On Thursday September 26th, Dr. Froyd from Texas A&M came to give the Iron Range Engineering students a workshop on learning about learning. Throughout the workshop, Dr. Froyd focused on keeping learning outcomes, assessments and evaluation, and practice aligned. Alignment is the understanding of the outcomes so that practice and assessment match them. The workshop helped me realize why some learning may not be as efficient as it could be. Dr. Froyd also pointed out that the ABET outcomes should not be separate from our learning, but should direct our learning. Because of this workshop, learning at Iron Range Engineering has become a little bit better. I would like thank Dr. Froyd for continuing to improve IRE and making learning here the best way to learn.
