BackgroundGaming has become one of the most popular pastimes in world. In 2016, the EntertainmentSoftware Association surveyed over 4,000 U.S. households and found that 63% of householdshave at least one person who plays video games for at least 3 hours a week [5]. This amount is anincrease from the same study done in 2015 which found 42% of households had a gamer [7].Furthermore, ​Granic found ​that 97% of American children and adolescents play games for atleast one hour per day in the United States [9]. Since the first video games were released in the1950’s [10], games have improved on the visuals, storyline, and

The code(s) will be available on theOBD interface for diagnosing and servicing. The cure for the problem is for the repair technicianto replace the sensor or use the code or codes to troubleshoot the problem and narrow the causeof the problem down to a specific part or system and to replace that part or system (i.e. swap outthe bad part(s)). Unfortunately, if the problem is intermittent or possibly caused by a faultywiring harness or by an evolving mechanical defect, solving the mystery of what is causing theproblem can become extremely vexing.

measureable benefits. These benefits include increased confidence andinterest in science and engineering pursuits. Students also acquire a meaningful understanding ofthe engineering design process, and particularly its iterative nature. The communitycontextualization has been observed to provide further benefits by making the relevance ofSTEM a central feature of the student engagement. Further study is needed to determine if thisalso facilitates communication between students, families, and community members, positioningthese students as STEM ambassadors able to relate the value of engineering to their community.References1Kosovich,J.

Whileincluded in the Engineering Student Outcomes, ABET does not define multidisciplinary teams(d), contemporary issues (h), life-long learning (i), or modern engineering tools (k). Since ABETdoes not define these terms, it is up to the program to define them in the context of their uniquePEOs and identify indicator(s) appropriately for consistent decision-making (otherwise risk TypeI or Type II errors).

The study also concluded thatgirls, although not limited in their ability, need positive mentor or instructor support to overcomeingrained stereotypes (Stoeger et al., 2013). The gender gap in this study may have been closeddue to the STEM focused school culture, various kinds of activities at school in addition to theSTEM extracurricular clubs.Table 3: The impact of gender on STEM perception based on STEM club enrollment p<0.05 Gender Sig.
