To further enhance the standards-based emphasis of the project, master teachers inboth mathematics and science conducted sessions throughout the summer institute during whichthe participating teachers developed their own lesson plans utilizing information and tools fromthe project that were more finely aligned with specific curriculum standards. These lesson planswere published on the web in PowerPoint format to be available to all teachers in the project.The approach used in the two MSP programs is supported by the results of a 2009 study by theNational Academy of Engineering (NAE). “Ad hoc infusion, or introduction, of engineering ideas and activities (i.e., design projects) into existing science

TheIntroduction to Research method class is designed to provide students with a vital, year long,full-emersion experience into the processes and activities involved with scientific andengineering research and practices. The Technology and Engineering courses, in 10th and 11thgrades, introduce students to the technology tools and their applications in science andengineering practices through modern, hands-on experiments.

To overcome therestrictions that these types of camps hold over potential participants, a more comprehensiveengineering outreach camp1 was established in 2008 at Texas A&M University-Kingsville(TAMUK). This camp included hands-on STEM related projects from several differentdisciplines and included project documentation and competitions, and presentations fromuniversity admission and financial aid (UAFA) departments.

The adolescents worked in teams of three or four membersover the course of one school year to develop a solution to the problem they selected. Pre andpost-interviews were conducted to determine the adolescents’ perceptions of engineering andtheir self-efficacy in engineering. Data revealed that the participants’ sense of engineering self-efficacy increased after participating in the project. In addition, the participants’ perceptions ofengineering changed over time.
