. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 A Novel Brainstorming Pedagogy to Mobilize Pico/Nano/Micro-Satellite (PNMSat) Engineering Research and Education in Indian AcademiaAbstractThe article describes the outcome of activities to positively impact the careers of engineeringgraduates in India by engaging them in pico/nano/micro-satellite (PNMSat) engineering througha novel brainstorming pedagogy. The pedagogy, derived out of a systems engineering approachdeveloped for the design and development of PNMSat/CubeSat missions, is used to teach acomprehensive course in PNMSat design engineering. The approach involves brainstorming theparticipants to conceive a PNMSat payload and teach the PNMSat bus design to accommodatethe conceived

, innovative problem-solving skills, team-based leadership,communication skills, and knowledge of post-graduation options that prepare them for graduateschool and professional careers in STEM fields. Out of the nineteen students whose papers wereaccepted, presented, and published in the AIAA conferences, twelve pursued graduate degrees(63%), of which seven pursued PhD degrees (37%) and five pursued Master’s degree (26%).In order to develop a data-driven best-practice model, starting in the Fall 2018 semester, studentdemographic data will be collected by the educational assessment staff from the KU TeachingExcellent to track participation, retention, and graduation of under-represented student groupswithin STEM fields, and compare the institutional

overwhelming for an absolute beginner”Another student noted:“The info given was straightforward, and should’ve been easy to follow, but for someone such as myself, who has never flown a plane nor participated in a simulation, it was difficult to pull off successfully. However, it was very interesting, and I would like to try and sharpen my skills through my college career”This indicates that the exercise was not so trivial that someone with no prior knowledge would beable to accomplish the task without any preparation. This also indicates that some preparationbefore the flight helped the students perform better than others. It was also an enjoyable experiencefor those that came

and females in their attitudes. Analysis of the pretest and post-test results of the math and science concepts instrument indicated the effectiveness of theintervention on math concepts.KeywordsAttitudes, STEM, middle school, mathematics, scienceIntroductionThe US currently faces a challenge of educating sufficient number of students with interest inpursuing STEM-related careers. US students continue to perform at levels well below of thosefrom other industrialized nations as demonstrated by the data of 2015 PISA Report1. According tothis report, US students score in science was lower than seventeen industrialized countries. Theperformance of US students was even worse in math, in which they scored lower than thirty-sevenof the countries

interview transcripts. We present a representativequote and several similar, though truncated, quotes from other participants to illustrate thethemes. Each of these themes is an aspect of how the participants have constructed theirunderstanding of and managing uncertainty in design.Theme 1: Managing uncertainty can be learned, but none learned to do so in schoolA common conclusion from the participants is that the ability to manage uncertainty in designcan be learned. This was most succinctly stated by Stephen who responded to a question aboutwhether he approaches projects the same way at the beginning of his career versus where he wasnow by simply stating “No. Again it’s a learned experience.” The participants explained thatthere were five main
