Interests and Perceptions of EngineeringSurvey (F-PIPES) Instrument (Fundamental Research)IntroductionThere has been a significant push in the United States during the past decade to provide pre-college students experiences to engage in engineering learning activities. Motivations behindproviding these experiences include developing students’ technological literacy and 21 st Centuryskills (Brophy, Klein, Portsmore, & Rogers, 2008; Miaoulis, 2014; National Research Council(NRC), 2009), attracting more people into the profession (National Academy of Engineering,2008), and diversifying the engineering workforce (Black, 1994; Wulf, 2006), to name a few.However, even with the significant resources committed (Gibbin & Davis, 2002) to this work
