Knowing how to solder electrical components could be a worthwhile skill for constructingsome of the projects. With this in mind, a laboratory session is planned for the students about thebasics of soldering, as well as the basics of electronic devices. This aids their attaining a morepractical perspective of the theoretical concepts that they have heard. For the practice session,each of the students and teachers is given a soldering kit containing instructions and materials tobuild a basic 555 timer circuit.

parameter itself, along with the measurement techniques,are not naturally occurring but socially-constructed. Statistically sound measurements requirethat one eliminate all known sources of variation so that one can mathematically verifycorrelations between variables that can be manipulated and the response to those variables (lackof diversity). In other words, objectivist science seeks to reduce variation to a set of controllableconditions. What is often overlooked in reductionist, objectivist science is that the state of naturerarely mimics laboratory conditions, where all influential sources of variation are eliminated.This is particularly true when one is working in a complex, dynamic social system that includeshuman beings.Within STEM cultures

The professor,who was experienced teaching the course, had become concerned about the level of learning andperceived lack of engagement on the part of the students. The flipped class method seemed to bea possible solution, since it had given indications of better understanding of course material.5Because this was a senior level class, the professor recognized that when the students graduatedin a few months, they would need to be able to take initiative and have knowledge to apply totheir heat

Because I'm thinking, what makes me feel good is solving a problem but that's not necessarily what makes you feel good right now.Outside of conflicting mindsets, many students saw a lack of utility or opportunity for empathyin their work. From their perspectives, their work had little to do with other people (e.g., end-users) and therefore empathy did not come into play. From Julie’s work at a water treatmentplant to Mike’s time in the fabrication laboratory to Donovan’s experiments with fish oil andwater emulsions, students did not see how empathy for others
