Highschool students are not familiar about this promising filed. Without creating an awarenessprogram in the K12 system, a consistent supply of students in logistics transportation program inuniversities will not be realized. Due to the tremendous need of this profession, we havedesigned a secondary curriculum in logistics transportation for high school students with the helpof public and private funding. The curriculum design consists of six modules of lectures, handson projects, and educating the K12 educators. The lecture modules and hands on projects aredesigned to

The first survey was administered tostudents who participated in the course, while the second was given to the general computingpopulation within SPSU. The goal of the survey is to help educators make informed coursedecisions using the data collected.IntroductionAs a new technology emerges, students are naturally curious about how it works and how itmight be applied across a variety of contexts.

Active learning has been defined as any instructional method that engagesstudents, whereas collaborative learning involves students working in small groups to reach acommon goal [1, 2]. When student groups are more structured, the term “cooperative learning”has been used [3]. As opposed to traditional lecture-based instruction, active learning methodsactively engage students in the educational process.
