Anticipated effect of integrating engineering and science problems on understanding the calculus concepts.2. Interest to solve calculus problems from the area of specialization.3 Viewing the calculus capabilities as a condition to succeed in the area of specialization.4. Interest to attend the applications motivated course in addition to the conventional calculus class.The post-course questionnaire also inquired student opinions about the contribution of thethree teaching methods used in the course: demonstrating mathematical problems of scienceand technology

courses, and some upper division mathematics coursesstudents are often presented with concepts that can be demonstrated with “hands on”demonstrations similar to those done in the chemistry, physics, or engineering class.Unfortunately, with the improvement of computer technology and the internet, some of thesedemonstrations have been relegated to a “show and tell” time for students to watch computeranimation or downloaded videos. Still others believe such demonstrations are too timeconsuming or do not “add value” to the course. They may also believe that the apparatus used inthese demonstrations is expensive. In this paper we will show several demonstrations that havebeen successfully used to help reinforce the mathematical concepts that the

. Engineers, whetherstudents or professionals, need to remember that problem solving involves understanding theentire process; a black box solver should never be trusted! It is shameful that students andgraduates alike pick up a calculator to work simple sums, products, and functions that theyshould be exercising their minds to determine. Calculators, spreadsheet templates, computerprograms, and other technological devices save a great deal of time. They aren’t bad -- they justshouldn’t be used blindly. Users need to understand the basis and limitations of any technologybefore relying on it.Within any STEM field, a skill that requires careful development is that of effectivelycommunicating solutions.

Topics are identified from science, mathematics, and technology that haveinteresting engineering applications, and then lessons are constructed to help students learnmathematics and science in the context of engineering design. Our purpose is to introduce pre-college students to engineering and show them what engineers do. We also hope to convey thefun and excitement of engineering and

the global economy and to pursue successful careers.Mathematics education in engineering curricula has undergone very little progress within thepast century, while the field of engineering and the educational demands of the engineeringworkforce have changed quite significantly. Much effort is needed in improving themathematics content to provide closer correspondence with and support of engineeringeducation. One particular aspect of modernization is increased integration of powerful andwidely available computing tools in education. New technologies have rendered many topicsstill taught in mathematics somewhat obsolete while bringing to the forefront the need and abilityto teach different areas of mathematics in increased depth.
