PAEE/ALE’ 2020: Conference Ambiance

PAEE/ALE’2020 is an international conference on active learning in engineering education. It will be held at Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Pathumthani, Thailand. AIT, founded in 1959, is an international organization for higher education. It specializes in engineering, advanced technologies, sustainable development, and management and planning. It aims to “promote technological change and sustainable development” in the Asia-Pacific region, through higher education, research, and outreach. AIT is about 64 kilometers (40 miles) from Suwannabhumi International Airport and about 26 kilometers (16 miles) from Don Mueang International Airport.

PAEE/ALE

PAEE/ALE aims to be a place for teachers, researchers, and professionals specializing in Engineering Education to meet annually to exchange, share, and discuss ideas to enhance engineering education with Active Learning. Besides paper sessions, participants will experience active involvement in hands-on sessions, workshops, debates, round table, poster sessions, and student project sessions. The conference is the merging of two international events: the International Symposium on Project Approaches in Engineering Education (PAEE) organized by the PAEE association and the Department of Production and Systems of the University of Minho, Portugal, since 2009, and Active Learning in Engineering Education Workshop (ALE) organized by Active Learning in Engineering Education Network since 2000. PAEE/ALE’2020 will be the fifth collaboration of the two events.
