students naturally use three-dimensionalreasoning as a technique for problem solving. When dyslexic students encounter a problemsolving situation, they naturally change their three-dimensional perspective and examine theproblem from various angles without shifting their observation point. Many dyslexic studentsspin an object mentally without needing to alter how they are viewing that object. This skill ofshifting perspectives is useful and effective in physical science; however, in two-dimensionallanguage, changing a three dimensional perspective can result in a “b” looking like a “d”, “p” or“q”, depending on the angle at which the object is viewed. It is possible that the reasoning skillthat results in language challenges for the dyslexic student

and Braun (2010) observed that many dyslexicstudents innately approach problems from a three-dimensional perspective2. So when a dyslexicstudent is presented with an unfamiliar object, he may have a natural ability and predisposition toexamine the object from various angles and perspectives in his mind, without ever movinghimself or the object. The ability to reason three-dimensionally may lead a dyslexic student to beable to view the opposite side of an object in his mind, based on observations concerning thefront of the object and his previous knowledge. This special reasoning skill is extremely usefulin engineering. Language, however, is two-dimensional; the tendency to reason in threedimensions can lead a “b” to look like a “d”, “p” or “q

Water and Energy Education that theyhad designed previously. The first task was to provide a qualitative theory of water powerusage as well as a discussion about the impact of water power historically and locally.The discussion was very productive because of the community college's location inMassachusetts within an area central to America’s Industrial Revolution in the late 1800s.One of the field trips was a visit to a local hydro-electric plant near the college. Thecurriculum also included simple fluid mechanics, and terms such as head, flow anddiameter of a pipe.The quantitative section of the water power activity was to understand the principles ofthe flow equation, [Q = 0.62 * (cross-sectional area)*(2gh) 1/2].

The Associate Dean forUndergraduate Studies was also available for questions and comments. The campers made theirfinal preparations for the Challenge while their parents attended this meeting. Reunited in thelargest of the classrooms for the Challenge, families cheered on their campers as the teamscompeted.
