I went back to Kuwait knowing that it would be my final year and that a change of career was scheduled. Liaising with the publisher back in England that summer while on holiday from Kuwait, I was invited to join the company the following year as commissioning editor. A new door opened for me in Kuwait when a publisher from Thomas Nelson passed through and showed an interest in some teaching materials I had produced, and these were eventually published as 'English for Basic Maths'. Teaching was how I - like most - got started: English in France, French in England, English in Denmark, Libya and Kuwait, at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. From the age of 18 when I went to France to teach English as an 'assistant d'anglais' in Le Bouscat, Gironde (a suburb of Bordeaux) to the present day, I have been continuously employed (or educated or trained) in this exciting, dynamic sphere. (C01)I have spent all my working life in international (language) education. National Traffic Incident Management Responder Training Program (L12/元2A/元2B)įramework for Improving Travel-Time Reliability (L17) Incorporating Reliability Performance Measures in Operations and Planning Modeling Tools (L04) The instructors will further re-emphasize the relevant theoretical concepts using SHRP2 as a tool for a seamless transition from theory to practice. The selected senior and graduate level courses will also focus on applications of the SHRP2 products to provide hands-on experience. The depth of technical content of the SHRP2 modules will increase from freshman to senior/graduate level courses, building on information presented in the previous year(s). This vertical integration scheme will first introduce SHRP2 products to freshman students. Technologies to Enhance Quality Control on Asphalt Pavements (R06C)Ī total of 16 SHRP2 products will be vertically integrated in 7 courses covering 4 years of Civil Engineering curriculum.

Innovative Bridge Designs for Rapid Renewal (R04) See the list of Round 1 universities and products by focus area below. Nine universities concentrated on products within a focus area.

In Round 1, one university incorporated products from three focus areas into its transportation coursework. See the announcement and list of recipients In Round 2, five universities have received cooperative agreements to integrate products from three focus areas. The second round of SHRP2 Education Connection awarded five universities with cooperative agreements totaling more than $55,000 to incorporate solutions from the Reliability, Renewal, and Capacity focus areas. The first round of SHRP2 EducationĬonnection brought a total of 22 SHRP2 products or product bundles into classrooms across the country. SHRP2 Solutions in course studies for the fall and spring semesters of the 2015-16 academic year. The universities met this challenge introducing To integrate their choice of one or more SHRP2 Solutions into their existing curriculum. In 2015, the FHWA awarded 10 universities with $10,000-cooperative agreements The first round of SHRP2 Education Connection was a success.

Solutions to the real-world situations they will encounter in their careers. By doing this, students are equipped with innovative, cutting-edge Professionals with SHRP2 Solutions while they are still in school.
