project in effect between 2003 and 2006that primarily relied on anecdotal evidence of success. This project was extremely effective in creatingsixteen NCJETS (North Carolina Junior Engineering and Technology Society) high school clubs in sevencounties of the Central Piedmont region of North Carolina. Clubs were established with a math, science ortech ed teacher (or teachers) serving as club sponsor(s) and were encouraged to develop individualidentities that best served their populations. DiET also established the basis for annual competitions heldon the UNC-Charlotte campus, as well as offering high school summer camps through the UNC-Charlottesummer programs office.Phase II of this effort, Enhancing Diversity in Engineering Technology (NSF

not introduced as a tool; methods like brain-storming, trial-and-error, etc., are employed14. However, „system analysis‟ approach provides a roadmap to theproblem-solving process, by which the reasoning activity is streamlined and generalized. Thismethod may also be employed to demonstrate to the students how to formulate either wordproblems or a design basis. It also helps the teachers to show to their students how to switchfrom rote memorization to critical thinking.‘System Analysis’ ApproachThe system analysis approach considers the definition of a system as composed of componentswhich interact with each other to produce output(s) based on inputs. The best way to define thebehavior of a system is to define the variables which govern the

feedback from the students was the need of longer laboratory hours, even withthe addition of evening hours. They indicated that most of the technology in thelaboratories was not available in their schools. Parents were extremely happy about theoutcome and demanded a second program at a higher level. Students presented theirdesigns to a group composed from the families, the authors, the undergraduate assistant.The program was concluded with a cook-out where the families and staff of the differentinstitute programs socialized. The students were presented with certificates. In all, higherexpectations with quality instruction and ample resources yielded higher results.References[1] http:// www.edtrust.org[2] James, D.

However, none of Bobby’s group members elaborated or seemed to sharehis uncertainty. Also noteworthy is that Isabel took the opportunity to broach a subject that wasbecoming contentious – who was project manager – perhaps bringing it up in front of an adultfor a measure of safety in addressing a relational difficulty.As to how the feedback they received during the first design critique session shaped this group’ssocial interaction, findings indicate a decrease in students’ focus on social-relational issues asmembers became more task-focused after receiving negative feedback.

The mathematics concept central to this discussion is how to measure angles from the vertical. The explicit integration of this concept is how the students hang a weighted string off of

subjects, which is arguably agood response; but when asked to specify her answer, she relays the traditional subjectsassociated with engineers. We believe K-12 engineering education has the chance to properlyeducate pre-college students on what engineers do, as well as, expand students’ understanding ofthe skills that qualify a good engineer. Five of the six participants knew practicing engineers (e.g. parent, grandparent, uncle,cousin). However, they could say very little about what the engineer(s) did at work. For example,when we asked one participant if he knew what his Chemical engineer parents did at work heonly offered a general response: I: Oh I’m sorry Um do you know what your parents do at work as engineers?
