at Arizona State University. He teaches in the areas of bridging engineering and education, design and selection of materials, general materials engineering, polymer science, and characterization of materials. His research interests are in innovative education in engineering and K-12 engineering outreach. He has been working on Project Pathways, an NSF supported Math Science Partnership, in developing modules for Physics and Chemistry and also a course on Engineering Capstone Design. He has also co-developed a Materials Concept Inventory for assessing fundamental knowledge of students in introductory materials engineering classes.Jacquelyn Kelly, Arizona State University
research/teaching focuses on engineering as an innovation in pK-12 education, policy of STEM education, how to support teachers and students’ academic achievements through engineering, engineering ’habits of mind’ and empathy and care in engi- neering. He has published more than 140 journal articles and proceedings papers in engineering education and educational technology and is the inaugural editor for the Journal of Pre-College Engineering Educa- tion Research.Dr. Jennifer Kadlowec, Rowan UniversityProf. Andrea Jennifer Vernengo, Rowan University Jennifer Vernengo is an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at Rowan University.

point of emphasis that seems to fallsomewhere between plea and demand. “It is extremely important that you read the textbook”, henotes. “It is very difficult for you to understand the concepts and succeed in this class withoutreading the text and attending all lectures.”As he sets the syllabus aside, the instructor expresses his desire for the class to work hard andenjoy the semester of materials science. He then pauses for a moment. “But above all else,” henotes, “I would like you use this course to become a more creative, more innovative engineer.”BackgroundCollege instructors have been struggling with a lack of creative skill development in theirstudents for many decades. Creativity is by no means a new topic in teaching and learning, but
more than 400 agent-based models across a wide range of content domains. He has also developed many computation-based curricular units for use in K-16 that are used internationally. He is the co-inventor of, and continues to develop restructuration theory that describes the changing content of knowledge in the context of ubiquitous computation, and its implications for making sense of complexity.

/2017 cohorts and five of the twenty-six2016 and 2017 REU students were also AMP students. REEMS activities over the academic year include: • Fall and spring seminars and research laboratory tours • Networking among partnering university faculty, graduate and undergraduate students, and materials professionals, and • Workshops and seminars on university transfer and academic programs at regional universities. During recruitment, the PI, REEMS staff, university research faculty, and formerREEMS REU students discuss the scope of research projects, various seminars and networkingopportunities, development of a coherent transfer plan to participating institutions, and thebenefits of both the
