Abstract
Increasing emphasis is being placed on establishing teaching and learning centers at the institutional level with the stated objective of improving the quality of teaching and education. In order to address this, Danish engineering institutions have created a national partnership to facilitate staff and faculty development. The national Pedagogical Network for Engineering Education (IPN), based in Ballerup, Denmark, was founded in 1996 and targets quality pedagogical and curriculum development of all Danish engineering education institutions: universities and colleges. This article describes Denmark’s IPN, and also offer reflections on the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy.
