However, the local workforce is not able to meet this demand. Manyemployers end up recruiting and relocating hires from outside of the state. In addition to theextra expense this entails, employers also experience turnover in hires without island ties due todifficulties in adjusting to the island‟s isolation, high cost of

“Technology Education/Pre-engineering education” (TE/PreEE)program and has its roots in industrial arts education dating back to the 1930s. More detaileddescriptions of each of these programs have been previously reported.[1-3] Both programsrequire substantial coursework in all four elements of STEM, as well as integrated-STEM(i.e.- how to use multiple STEM elements together in K-12 curriculum/activities). Studentsin both programs also acquire substantial experience in integrating non-STEM subjects withSTEM subjects. In 2006 our department completed a redesign of our “TechnologyEducation” curriculum to integrate more M&S into our Technology & Engineering (T&E)courses, resulting in our current “pre-engineering” curriculum.

that integrating many differentmathematics ideas in one concrete context is challenging. Further supports, such as using thedesign context as a capstone activity or incorporating structured transfer activities, may berequired to effectively enable students’ mastery of the more general mathematical ideas. In ourfuture work, we intend to consider more case studies of the curriculum in-action withimprovements to the implementation based on these findings, in addition to conductingcomparative analyses of the curriculum relative to alternative approaches. This will help us tofurther elaborate on the conditions necessary for designing effective K-12 engineering curricula.Bibliography1. W. H. Schmidt, C. C. McKnight, and S. A. Raizen, A Splintered

testing of candidate assessment items is accomplished using cognitive interviews. Oncea number of questions have been brainstormed for a particular assessment, the questions areprinted (one to a page) and tested with students. Each interviewer takes a number of thequestions (no more than can be tested in 20 minutes with a student) and sits one-on-one with astudent to test the questions.During a cognitive interview, the interviewer first reassures the student that the purpose of theinterview is to see if the questions are good ones, not to test the student. Whether or not thestudent knows the answer to a question, we ask that s/he let us know what s/he thinks thequestion is asking, and whether any words or phrases are particularly confusing. The

Ninety percent of the state‟s energy is imported. Energy sustainability for this remoteisland chain will require reducing our reliance on imported fossil fuels and a significant increasein reliance on renewable energy sources in the islands such as wind, solar, geothermal, and waveenergy. In 2008, Hawaii made a public/private commitment to achieve 70% clean energy by2030. An estimated thirty percent of this involves increasing energy

Schools were provided with computers and internet connections atan astounding rate in the 1990’s, but there was no correlated increase in student performance.1Investigation into this problem has revealed that computer technology is simply used to augmenttraditional ‘instructionist’ teaching strategies,1,2 and this type of integration does not parallel thecurrent real-time problem solving domain that is driven by technology. Therefore, the integration of technology to reinforce science, technology, engineering andmathematics (STEM) education must not simply augment the
