Especially when the topic of interest involves heat transfer, fluiddynamics or both, it becomes very difficult for students to obtain a hands-on experience due tothe nature of the experimental apparatus. Incorporating the design component in undergraduateengineering education has been an immediate and pressing concern for educators, professionalsocieties, industrial employers and agencies concerned with national productivity andcompetitiveness. Student-led projects as required components of course curriculum addtremendous value to science and engineering education. The design experience develops thestudents’ lifelong learning skills, self-evaluations, self-discovery, and peer instruction in thedesign’s

Although K-12 engineering curricula and research on how students learn is required to develop successful K-12 engineering programs, researchers also believe that engineering education will be greatlyenhanced when engineering literacy is clearly defined, informal engineering education programsare integrated into the K-12 curriculum, and engineering-focused schools are supported 5.Informal programs, such as those developed by local museums and universities, currently engagea small percentage of the total number of K-12 students in the United States.

Asstated by Daly and Bryan1; “Nanoscale science and engineering represents both the revolutionaryand evolutionary nature of science, and if we are to remain contemporary in our curriculum wemust design lessons focused in this area and find ways to successfully integrate this content intocurricula.” However, few teachers have the knowledge to incorporate NSE into their curriculumsince this field of knowledge is developing after they have left school themselves.

Second, it is not uncommon for sections of the same calculus courseto differ in pace and in the order of concepts covered, making it difficult to align the companion Page 23.275.2course content with a given calculus course. Lastly, student performance in paired courses ishighly correlated; thus, paired courses put students at risk—poor performance in multiplecourses will impact students’ financial aid and/or academic status.J.

Math as rote procedures can be a barrier toconceptual understanding in science. But math is the language of science and it explains criticalconceptual components of scientific ideas (e.g., the differences between constraints on area vs.constraints on volume, differences between linear and exponential growth).

One alternative would be to rank the topics from top tobottom, but the added time to complete the survey would reduce the response rate. Anotheralternative used in the past was to assign an importance score on a scale. However, surveyrespondents normally list many topics as highly important and the differentiation is lost.Therefore, asking for the top two choices are used as a compromise for a fast survey response.And, the results cannot be used to identify topics for reduction, or elimination.Table 4 shows the number of
