As a part of the program, all fellows design classroom modulesthat integrate their own research, one specific NAE grand challenge, and the rigorous demands ofthe state standards in science. The goal of these modules is to spark curiosity in underprivilegedand minority students so that they pursue engineering related careers and consider the socialimplications of the engineering grand challenges.[4, 5] The modules designed by the NSF GK12fellows and their teacher pairs are first piloted within a

, the computerbecomes a tool students can use to collect and analyze data and allow their programming projectsto interact with the world outside the computer.Another benefit of utilizing graphical languages and data acquisition hardware as the mediumthrough which engineers learn computer programming is the ability to incorporate elements ofengineering design. In addition to computing, design is an important concept for engineers andengineering students. Challenges exist for educators trying to introduce students to design earlyin their academic careers. One challenge is that students do not have much knowledge uponwhich to build a design from. They have not had their engineering coursework yet and do nothave the tools to do sophisticated

The IEEE-SME exam had a better correlationto GPA than did the core exam by a factor of four. The IEEE-SME correlated relatively wellwith both the core exam and with student GPA.One major issue with both exams is response time in implementing corrective actions. Anassessment at the end of a student’s undergraduate career or as in the case presented in thispaper, in the middle and at the end of a colligate career, means that corrections to a course maytake two years or even longer. Reduction of the feedback latency can be accomplished byimplementation of a per-course assessment process where an assessment is made at

It made me realize how careless I can be sometimes, and howserious that really can be. For example, if I alone pour my used oil into the ground it doesn’t doas much, but when I do it repeatedly along with several others doing the same thing, it becomesa big problem. Not to just look at my actions in everyday life, but to look at how I should act inthe field. It isn’t enough to just design something to the specs.
