Engineering Camps on Students’ Interest in STEM (Evaluation)IntroductionScience, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, also known as STEM, are fields that havebecome increasingly important in the economic growth of the United States. STEM plays anessential role in the development of new ideas and technology, and drives discovery. With aconstant new stream of jobs, and growth in many STEM related occupations, there is a risingdemand for qualified people to fill those roles [1]. However, in comparison to past generations,student interest and literacy in STEM subjects have been declining [2]. The large gap betweenfemales and males entering STEM fields is also an area of concern. While females earn slightlymore than 50% of degrees in psychology

Products, such as the Arduino, can be used to expose students to programming andbuilding circuits with various electrical components. The Arduino, and similar devices, can beused to expose students to programing languages, such as C, Scratch, etc. [1]. Block-basedprogramming languages, like Scratch, can also be used as a gateway to introduce students tomore advanced programming and robotics [1]. Programming and

Yet,there are limited numbers of inquiry investigate approaches to incorporated CT into acurriculum. Betül Czerkawski researched ways to integrate CT across all curriculum, throughsurveying instructional CT designers. She constructed the survey using the ADDIEinstructional design model. One of her findings showed that the Mind Map(s) (MM) strategycan establish a better connection between CT and instructional design [1]; however, verylittle research existed to investigate the correlation

In response to numerous reports in the 1990s andearly 2000s [4-7], multiple EER graduate programs were established in the mid-2000s and agrowing number continue to emerge to educate and train the next generation of EER faculty andpolicy makers. Historically, many came to EER as individuals trained in other disciplines, butwith an interest in improving teaching and learning [8]. This approach created aninterdisciplinary space where many could learn the norms, practices, and language of EER asthey became scholars

Gender bias, as defined in this paper, is the unfair differences inthe way a person is being treated because of their gender. This can be conscious or unconsciousprejudice in thoughts and or actions.Research suggests that gender bias in academia is not only a question of whether male and femaleprofessors are evaluated more or less favorably but that women are also judged on differentcriteria than their male counterparts [1, 2].

Ill-structured tasks are important to engineering courses because they are similar to authenticproblems that students will encounter in their future workplaces [1], [2]. Solving ill-structuredtasks collaboratively allows students to expand their learning beyond “drill-and-practice”-typeproblem solving and engage in higher order thinking and co-construction of knowledge [3].Nevertheless, studies have indicated that it is necessary to scaffold ill-structured tasks becausethey are complex [4], [5], and students do not naturally implement effective collaborativeinteractions while solving these tasks [6].
