Literature ReviewAdopting the use of robotics in middle school education is important because, as students begin toconsider future education and careers opportunities, engagement in positive STEM learningexperiences that impart a sense of success and competence [11] can arrest the early decline of theirSTEM interest [8] and prevent them from

One measure of ADB was, “I do not feel like ‘partof the family’ in my academic discipline.” Mean scores for ADB ranged from 2.94 to 3.03 withhigher scores indicating greater levels of belongingness. Similarly, peer interaction (PI) isderived from four survey items (Cronbach's α = 0.856) accounting for 62% of the inter-itemvariance, and mean scores ranged from 3.02 to 3.24.

Byexamining the development level within students’ class standing groups (freshman to senior), onecan gauge whether students over time perform at higher rates than previous years. Ideally, to testgains across a given span of time, data is collected longitudinally, tracking an individual acrosstheir college career. Because we assume that regardless of student ability and demographicbackground, as whole, students will have higher learning gains as they progress through theengineering program, we assert that by aggregating and averaging out values over different classstanding groups can provide insights similar to that of a longitudinal study.Figures 1 and 2, where average scores are examined across

is concerning for many reasons. Stevens and collaborators point out that: “Students often have vague images of professional engineering work, and the images they do have are strongly colored by the experiences in their educational careers…As a result, students often ignore, discount, or simply do not see images of engineering that emphasize its nontechnical, noncalculative sides and its non-individual aspects” ([6], p. 120).Similarly, Jonassen also notes problems in the discrepancy between engineering problems solvedby students and practitioners: “Learning to solve classroom problems does not effectivelyprepare engineering graduates to solve workplace problems” ([7], pp. 103-104).

The beginning of the next class began with discussion ofsolutions from these assignments.Five types of assignments were available to students: concept questions, practice problems,homework problems, unit tests, and an advanced project. Concept questions were designed tohelp students learn to connect detailed course content with their outside experiences, othercourses in the curriculum, and their own career goals. Some of these questions asked students toreflect on and self-assess their own learning processes. Practice problems were similar tohomework and test problems. The advanced project was a group project that involved visiting alab to acquire EEG data during an “oddball” experiment and performing data

Any job that does not require creativity and innovation can be automated and done by robots. Are we training engineer robots? or are we training problem solvers? Creativity should be promoted in our profession as much as is reasonable. The smartest tend to be the most creative and if we shun that part of a young person's interest, we will lose that valuable talent to another profession.

Forexample, the problem rewrite assignment is a form of problem-based learning, a pedagogicalstrategy that others are using to teach SR and SJ [22]. Another promising strategy is usingcorporate social responsibility (CSR) as a tool in engineering ethics education, as a way ofpreparing students for “the CSR dimensions of their careers” and broadening studentsunderstanding of stakeholders, especially to include oppositional groups [23].

These skills willhelp our students in becoming better engineers and give them experience that can help them intheir future careers.
