Dear eCOTS delegate: Thanks for your interest in this workshop. This brief and confidential survey is designed to help us understand your background and interests. This workshop is designed for colleagues who are already in their "early" stage as faculty, i.e., (a) have an academic tenure-track or similar position (assistant prof, lecturer, etc), (b) within 5-6 years (at most) *after* finishing their PhD, and (c) with interest in publishing research on and improving practice in the broad field of statistics/data science education, in all teaching/learning contexts. The eCOTS organizers will contact applicants in early May after the application process closes on May 9.
Description: The workshop aims to provide 'young faculty' with ideas and directions for improving academic survivability related to key areas that academic institutions deem important (and consider in promotion decisions), regarding high-impact research, good teaching, and community contribution. The workshop will mix several mini-lectures and small group discussions on topics and dilemmas related to directions for improving research innovation and contribution to the field of statistics education, personal effectiveness in an academic environment, work-life balance, and other topics. The format is compact and flexible; participants are expected to come ready to actively engage with others in a similar early stage of their academic career.
Workshop Facilitator: Iddo Gal, U. of Haifa, Israel.
