Packard3 concluded that community colleges often provide an entry point for firstgeneration, low income, racial/ethnic minority or non-traditional college students. Increasing thenumbers of successfully graduating minority students in Science, Technology, Engineering andMath (STEM) is known to be achieved by intentional strategies to recruit students to and retainstudents at community colleges: emphasizing dual credit classes in high school, providingopportunity for career related experiences and providing community-related support4.

Several interviewees, particularly those who had pursued their own out-of-class professional, outreach, or entrepreneurial experiences, expressed dissatisfaction with in-class assignments that had imaginary circumstances and impact. Yet two students spokepositively of the experience of seeing actual documents written by engineers. They recountedthat seeing these documents somewhat mitigated the demotivation caused by their perception ofthe assignment’s low stakes

Although there is a significant time constraint on this project, theaddition of rapid prototyping has led to better designed, well-engineered, more efficient, andmore capable robots. These technologies have benefited the design project by not only aidingstudents in the ability to develop more complex ideas, but it has also allowed the program todevelop more difficult course objectives. With this advanced technology and greater ability todesign and fabricate innovative solutions to the objectives, FEH can create more intricate robotcourses in the future without poorly impacting the student success rate in the project.There are

A Two-Step Program for Undergraduate Students to Gain Authentic Experience in the Research Process1. IntroductionThe value of undergraduate participation in authentic research, especially in science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines, has been the subject of various studies overthe past two decades. The Association of American Colleges and Universities (2008) identifiedit as one of ten high impact educational experiences. The Council on Undergraduate Research(2005) termed authentic research participation as “the pedagogy of the 21st century.” This isperhaps not surprising, as STEM students report both affective and cognitive gains from theirundergraduate research experiences.

always had an interest in this question and decided to tackle it during the course of my doctoral studies, which were advised by Joe Sinfield. Innovation, however, is a broad topic, one that could perhaps be said to have no home as it lives across fields such as management, technology studies, design, engineering, economics, engineering education, and psychology. Those who study innovation tend to focus either on characterizing innovation or on characterizing innovators, and at the outset of my study I felt a strong tension while trying to decide which one – innovations or innovators – to focus on. Although I could not understand why, I felt strongly inclined to study both, and thus my

the need for a pedagogical model that helps develop students as professionals, which isdifferent from a standard instructor-led learning model. As a counterpoint to such broadeningefforts, Anderson, Courter, McGlamery, Nathans-Kelly, and Nicometo18 find that “engineers areseen to be frustrated by non-engineering work.”.These, and other studies reviewed in the next section, point to a two-fold gap. One, students lackknowledge of the social and problem contexts/requirements, and are not trained in ways toaddress them. Particularly lacking are need/problem identification and need/problem framingskills, which are required to address complex and messy real world problems. Second, studentsdevelop values that are too technology-centered, and this

For high school students, many PLTW initiatives are not embedded, but offered asan elective course, outside of their normal Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM)trajectories. Students in public school settings where PLTW is offered as an elective may findthat these courses conflict and compete with other courses that may hold a personal interest.Though PLTW courses are engaging and expose students to principles in engineering andtechnology, in many educational settings, it is up to the individual student to decide on PLTW asa viable and worthwhile pathway.To assess the impact of PLTW, several states have begun longitudinal tracking of studentsenrolled in

In 1992, ABET President John Prados5 calledfor a paradigm shift in engineering education, noting that while the post-war paradigm shift toengineering science was sorely needed to meet the technological challenges of the day, it leftengineers unprepared for the present-day needs of industry: Few would argue that the engineering science emphasis has not produced graduates with strong technical skills. However, these graduates are not nearly so well prepared in other skills needed for success in today's engineering practice and in the development and management of innovative technology; these include: (1) oral and written
