Bernal, though--our newest faculty member and an engineer--took for granted that theprogram would come to fruition. While the seasoned communication professor was impressedthat “we took the idea from inception to implementation in one year,” the new engineeringprofessor hadn’t considered one year to be a particularly quick timeframe. A related key traitthat all three share is accepting the need to do things “on the fly”; for instance, we agreed from

Done outsidethe confines of established engineering education curricular activities, Making comes from animaginative, creative mind-space and is a shareful practice. Making is defined by a do-it-yourself ideal and is historically rooted in efforts likePopular Mechanics magazine who demystified everyday stuff for hobbyists and the Whole EarthCatalog: Access to Tools5 who surveyed everyday tools for the counterculture movement of the1960s.

and Braun (2010) observed that many dyslexicstudents innately approach problems from a three-dimensional perspective2. So when a dyslexicstudent is presented with an unfamiliar object, he may have a natural ability and predisposition toexamine the object from various angles and perspectives in his mind, without ever movinghimself or the object. The ability to reason three-dimensionally may lead a dyslexic student to beable to view the opposite side of an object in his mind, based on observations concerning thefront of the object and his previous knowledge. This special reasoning skill is extremely usefulin engineering. Language, however, is two-dimensional; the tendency to reason in threedimensions can lead a “b” to look like a “d”, “p” or “q

encourage students to pursue STEM pathways. This conclusion is one of thefirst steps in overcoming a national dilemma. However, it is important to keep in mind programscreated for middle school students should not only be exciting but also meaningful where thestudents learn the core STEM concepts. It is the meaningful experience, not the “fun”experience, that keeps students engaged with STEM later in life2.Incorporating engineering in the K-12 classroom has been found to provide students withmeaningful applications and connections to content which students might not have otherwisemade. Engineering exposure at the middle grades can build critical thinking and problem solvingskills, and it can also help students connect to ideas that they would
