-10. During this timeof undergraduate research experiences, there has been a push from using inquiry into authentic science andauthenticity for classroom learning11-13.Some researchers stress the use tools such as the microscope or telescope, or activities like bioinformaticsand biodiesel production, or community collaborations and summer camps as the focus for authenticscience14-23. Tomas and Ritchie claim that integrating authentic science activities into classrooms assiststudents in learning how practicing scientists conduct research24. These types of authentic scienceexperiences can motivate students25.Interestingly, sometimes the terms are combined, such as the “reflection on authentic science inquiry26” and“authentic science inquiry27

To best address these issues,engineering researchers, policy advocates, and industry leaders were convened to discuss thefuture of STEM and societies in the age of AI.

CenturyFor the U.S., broad-based discussions in the 1990s about engineering graduates’ capabilities andchanging realities in the workplace lead to major restructurings of accreditation criteria.5-7.Recently published engineering career profiles call for enhancements in technical proficiencies,contextual awareness (teamwork and globalism), and personal attributes. For example, theprofile for quality performance from a practicing engineer developed by Davis, Beyerlein, andDavis illustrates the broadening of engineering education to include a range of interpersonal andprofessional skills or behaviors.8We frame our discussion of PRISM by focusing on a less well-publicized change in demands forpractitioners – the impact of advanced, computer-based

education is selected as one of the key areas. This is relevant to the increased demands ina shorter and faster paced research and development in electronics systems design. In order tomeet the functional requirements for the electronics systems, one of the typical choices is to usea general-purpose microcontroller, sensors, and communication modules. In embedded systemeducation, the topics related to these components can be covered. The Engineering Technologyprogram at Texas A&M University has been educating students through embedded Cprogramming, microcontroller architecture, and embedded system software courses.

]. The camouflage is not just a turn of phrase because the kinds of harmful algorithms she discusses are “by design, inscrutable black boxes” [33:28]. She devotes a whole chapter to the impact of the U.S. News college ranking system and how its use of known proxies creates a system prone to gaming. This possibility for gaming then lay the foundation for a consulting industry that further privileges students with a high socioeconomic status (usually white, urban, upper-class families). Therefore, even if the model itself might not be the main discriminatory tool, it can set clear conditions for discriminatory practices. This is a salient point because, as O’Neil illustrates, one of the reasons we wish to create models is so that

The utility ofnumerical and symbolic calculations for analyzing complex problems shows the students,at an early stage of their studies, the role of basic theory in practice. Students tend tobecome best motivated to learn something when they can see its reliance [1].Figure 3: Electrostatic field potential

Specifically, the design of 2D and 3Denvironments will need to reduce the level of support provided to participants. For example, the3D breadboard software can progressively decrease the feedback provided to learners so thatthey have the help they need early in practice but are not hindered as they prepare for thetransition. Both the 2D simulation and the 3D breadboard software can also facilitate thetransition by requiring similar procedures to what is necessary in the physical environment.

However, from experience anddiscussions they decided that for someone to fully understand and appreciate what currentimmersive VR is, they must experience it first-hand.

basic premisebehind this project area is that students will quickly forget long tedious lists of boring lab safetyrules, however anyone who has ever experienced a real laboratory accident will remember thatexperience ( and hopefully learn from it ) for a much longer time. Simulated accidents areobviously not as memorable as true experiences, however they should still be more memorableand have a more long-lasting impact than simple written rules.Part of the research goal for this project area was to experiment with different developmentplatforms, in order to determine how to best implement educational virtual reality.

While these are no doubt helpful for others trying to develop similarcourses, what we report here comes from systematically collected data that included informationabout how a faculty member incorporated advice about developing courses, selected labs for thecourse, and got those labs ready for student use, a research approach we hope to see more often.Course development funding arrived in early 2007.
