Enhancing Teaching Skills with ExCEEd Educator DVD Training
The ExCEEd Educator Training DVD series provides valuable teaching resources for faculty, especially adjuncts, who may not have access to in-person workshops. Developed by prominent civil and architectural engineering educators, Ronald W. Welch, Ph.D., P.E., and Allen C. Estes, Ph.D., P.E., these DVDs offer a streamlined way to enhance teaching capabilities while emphasizing that they complement, rather than replace, immersive training experiences. With 12 years of successful outcomes and future workshops planned at leading institutions, this initiative aims to foster continual improvement in engineering education.

Why develop DVD’s • Not all faculty can attend a teaching workshop • Adjuncts normally receive limited to no training • Many adjuncts and students teach for us • DVD’s provide some training • DVD’s will not replace the full workshop experience • Best experience – ExCEEd graduate mentoring the users Department of Civil Engineering
