“Making the Transition from Engineer to Leader” – Dr. Leslie Martinch
On 28 June 2021, Leslie Martinch delivered a virtual Distinguished Lecturer webinar on “Making the Transition from Engineer to Leader” to the Education Society Vizag Bay Section Chapter. A total of 77 members from various parts of India joined Leslie and interacted.
Leslie spoke on relationships, communications in project management, selling ideas, and negotiating to take projects to the next level. She also discussed the four main principles (a) mastering relationships, (b) communicating effectively (c) seeing the big picture, and (d) getting things done. She iterated the need for truth, honesty, trust, communication, and accountability in our daily works. The need for requirement analysis, functional behavior, architectural synthesis, validation, and verification was also stressed in her lecture. She gave a 90 minute focused spirit model to achieve high productivity. The need to honor different problem-solving approaches was exhibited with few examples.
At the end of the lecture, there was a Q&A session with Leslie. Many members, students, and senior executives participated and appreciated Leslie’s views about the transition from Engineer to a Leader.

TLT Special Issue on Technologies for Data-Driven Interventions in Smart Learning Environments
Abstract Submission (Optional): 15 October 2021
Full Manuscripts Due: 15 December 2021
Smart learning environments (SLEs) have been recently defined [1] as learning ecologies wherein students perform learning tasks and/or teachers define them with the support provided by tools and technology. SLEs can encompass physical or virtual spaces in which a system senses the learning context and process by collecting data, analyzes the data, and consequently reacts with customized interventions that aim at improving learning [1]. In this way, SLEs may collect data about learners’ and educators’ actions and interactions related to their participation in learning activities as well as about different aspects of the formal or informal context in which they can be carried out, from sources such as...Continue Reading
