Pre-College Engineering Education

to adopt best teaching practices in theclassroom is essential [17] for their success. According to [18], there are ten practices consideredthe best for teaching math and science. These include: use of manipulatives and hands-on learning;cooperative learning; discussion and inquiry; questioning and conjectures; justification ofthinking; writing for reflection and problem solving; use of problem-solving approach; integrationof technology; teacher as a facilitator; and use of assessment as a part of instruction. In addition,understanding students’ misconceptions also supports teachers’ pedagogy [10,19].The research literature indicates that providing effective technology PD to STEM teachers has apositive effect on teacher and student learning

increases in confidence for this high school students were in Computer Engineering (from 2.7 to 7.3), Biomedical Engineering (from 3.8 to 7.4), and Neurology (from 1.3 to 7.4). The data reflects their confidence in their knowledge, not their knowledge of that material. We did not conduct any final examinations on the material. The increase in confidence can be traced to the interaction between the high school students, undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and industry professionals working in that area. When the students were working on their project, their knowledge was constantly being strengthened and reinforced by their partners. Therefore, a potential benefit of the proposed holistic approach is significantly

manufacturing in both of these disciplinesis needed8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce [10].Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the seniordesign or capstone course. McMasters and Lang indicate that few people in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is undertaken. Through design projects,the inclusion of industry partners in the education process will enhance the education provided tothe students and better reflect the expectations of industry [11].

dates back to the American philosopher John Dewey who defined it asreflective thinking. Dewey defined reflective thinking as “…the ground or basis for a belief isdeliberately sought and its adequacy to support the belief examined” [4]. This definition evolvedinto intellectual abilities and skills by Benjamin Bloom who developed Bloom’s taxonomy ofeducational objectives [5]. Currently, P21 classifies critical thinking as reasoning effectively, usingsystems thinking, making judgements and decisions, and solving problems [3]. Critical thinking is important to develop in students. The Femineer® Program is able tohelp students develop critical thinking skills by introducing systems thinking into the WearableTechnology curriculum. This will

The strength of such an approach is that it enables an analysis of socialphenomena beyond the abstract social structures (e.g. social, economic, political) traditionallystudied by researchers in the social and behavioral sciences (Wellman 1999).Ego-centered (or personal) networks make the individual the focus of attention where egodescribes people (alters) close to him or her (Boissevain 1974; Wellman & Berkowitz 1988).According to Wellman (1999), such investigations “enable researchers to study community ties,whoever with, wherever located, and however structured…and avoid the trap of looking

These results are interesting, because the stateof Michigan as a whole has one of the largest per-capita populations of engineers in the country.Yet, the greater Lansing metropolitan area is a bit of an exception to that trend, with very fewtechnology based employers.
