 <\/p>\n

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Champion: The role of the lead in developing and launching a program innovation.<\/li>\n
  2. The Program Entrepreneur: Shaping an educational innovation into a startup.<\/li>\n
  3. The Handoff: Transitioning from the startup team into a continuing program.<\/li>\n
  4. Sustainability: How success is sustained and maintained as an innovative program develops into an established program that continues to evolve and improve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Difference Maker proposals focus on the difference makers and their experience of innovating engineering and computing programs.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The abstract submission of 3-500 words should outline one or more topic areas from a program innovation experience of value and interest to other engineering and\/or computing educators. Abstracts should summarize the program\u2019s innovation & relevance to engineering education and outline a central aspect of the program\u2019s Conceptualization\/ Design\/ Implementation\/ Operation that would be of value to other program innovators. The abstract should briefly describe the setting for the program innovation in the broader context of engineering and\/or computing education, (not necessarily the particular institutional context), motivations for the innovative program, and a summary of the approach or results obtained.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    From the abstract submissions, a set of innovators will be invited to the working group to refine the concepts for presentation and post-conference publications, including but not limited to:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. A white paper on program innovation suitable for inclusion in the FIE 2020 proceedings.<\/li>\n
    2. Working-Group Presentation (WIP) related to each program\u2019s contributions and the post-conference work.<\/li>\n
    3. Post-Conference Work: A book, with chapters and supplemental multi-media illustrating the profiles of innovators and innovations in engineering and computing education.<\/li>\n
    4. Optional@FIE\u201920: One or more panel sessions highlighting the most innovative programs and their key features, particularly for those either innovating new programs or those trying to innovate and re-image existing programs.<\/li>\n
    5. Optional@FIE\u201920: Participation in participation in a special session on role-playing the different characters involved in making and sustaining program change.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

      The proposed structure for the working group is as follows:<\/p>\n
