The paper concludes with a discussion ofsignificance, intersecting issues, and future work.Overview of the Deficit ModelThe deficit model, a term originally coined by science studies scholar Brian Wynne,1 refers toapproaches to science and engineering (S&E) communication and outreach that are based on thebelief that publics are critical or skeptical of, and not interested in, S&E because they do

This type of multidisciplinary, technology-based approach isnot sufficiently reflected in our current educational programs.The classroom integration of sensor development is therefore not only topical but offers highlyinterdisciplinary subject matter, providing motivating scenarios for teaching STEM topics andskill sets. SENSE IT provides students with the opportunity to learn about sensor technologythrough a hands-on, collaborative process of designing, constructing, programming and testingwater quality sensors. Design-based activities such as SENSE IT provide a rich context forlearning and lend themselves to sustained inquiry and revision. Application of

. By their nature, Fermi problems depend on the use of some prior knowledge. Studentsmust be able to perform the following steps: 1) conjure up relevant values such as theapproximate U.S. population or MPG of a car, 2) understand the necessary mathematicaloperations to perform on these values, 3) use those operations in a logical and cohesivemathematical way, and 4) reflect on whether the estimate might or might not be reasonable. Thekinds of problems presented by the 3D Estimator primarily assess students' performance of thethird step, thereby assisting with performance on the fourth. That is, the 3D Estimator assessesstudents' use of mathematical operations and numerical strategies for producing reasonableestimates. Producing reasonable

Posing thoughtful questions that prompt reflection of recentlyintroduced concepts, along with interaction with the instructor is a way of sparking generativelearning.

As newglobal risks arise, the field of civil engineering will adapt and reflect the needs of society.Therefore, new lesson module topics such as “Engineering for Climate Change” or “Eco-engineering” can be developed to further promote the shifting demands of civil engineering.Exposing secondary students to these innovative concepts can stimulate and prepare the nextgeneration of civil engineers.

Adaptive experts (Hatano & Inagaki, 1986), onthe other hand, are able to think more fluidly and solve problems that they are unfamiliar with(often called “novel problems” in the AE literature), as well as the typical problems in their field.Frequently, adaptive experts actively seek new contexts, reflect on their own understanding, andconsider multiple viewpoints (Bransford et al., 2000; Wineburg, 1998).Engineering can be thought of as the creative application of fundamental principles to solve aproblem given limited resources. Because engineers may be required to solve a different problemunder different limitations each on project, engineering students need to strive to be adaptiveexperts, and engineering

. Theirimpact on student learning was also partially reflected in student responses to other open-endedquestions. For instance, students were able to provide important justifications when prompted todiscuss energy sources with an advocate of a particular approach, such as “You have to factor inthe cost, the power it supplies, and the effectiveness over X amount of years.” “The best way toselect an energy source is to focus on being environmentally friendly first. Then find the mostcost effective that will produce enough energy for your needs.” Students also commented on themost important things they learned through the game such as “The most important thing that Ilearned was to be environmentally friendly rather than being the most cost and energy

There are many different ways ofpresenting this guided analysis.Some students spend all their time in class furiously taking notes as accurately as possible.

This hampers students’ ability to make the strongconnection between these concepts that is necessary if they are to lead companies whichwill use these best practices as strategic tools for their business operations to realizequantum improvements in their processes and productivity.In this paper

Combining the “nearly identical”and “similar” responses results in 87% of the practitioners viewing the project as emulating their“real-world” experience.This response provides valuable insight to the program. Only 13% didn’t view their experienceas “real-world”.
