School Mentoring ProjectABSTRACTThe impact of mini-lectures on mentees’ understanding of pre-engineering concepts isinvestigated in the K-12 engineering outreach program DREAM. Past results have shown thatcoupling informal, recitation-like sessions with DREAM hands-on learning projects improvesmentees’ (high school students) understanding of pre-engineering concepts as compared tomentees that do not participate in such discussions. In fact, without these informal sessions,higher-order concepts can become further muddled, even when significant improvements areobserved in first-order concepts. This study aimed to determine if structured mini-lectures couldachieve similar gains in mentee understanding, with a more formal and repeatable approach

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 Infusing Non-Traditional Engineering Projects into Traditional Classrooms: How Do They Fit? The Case of the Build IT Underwater Robotics ProjectAbstractThe pivotal 2009 National Academy of Engineering report on engineering in K-12 educationstates that the presence of engineering in pre-college education is an important phenomenonbecause of engineering’s impact on K-12 STEM education. The NAE report then explores anumber of questions about the ways in which engineering is taught in K-12 classrooms,including issues such as the curricular and instructional resources used, interaction with otherSTEM subjects, and teacher preparation.

Surveys wereconducted at the beginning and end of this program to measure girls attitudes towardsSTEM careers, in order to gage the effectiveness of this program.1 IntroductionIn this paper, we explain the project we created for female students aiming to increasetheir awareness of engineering, and in particular robotics, as a potential career. Recently,academia has started placing great emphasis on trying to increase the number women inscience, technology, engineering and math (STEM) university programs and careers [1].Many hands-on programs have
