student learning, then concepts are more important than details. This“if” statement is not necessarily a given fact, for all of us can probably recount instructors alongthe way whose focus was not on student learning, but rather research, retirement, personalinterests, advancement, etc. However, given that student learning is the primary goal for aninstructor, we observe that it is paramount that the students learn concepts before details. Asengineers, it is somewhat ironic that we are espousing the value of concepts over details becausewe are naturally detail-oriented, but we think that begs the point: this observation is even moreimportant for engineers (or Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics [STEM]students in general

Perhapsthe biggest difference has to do with the level of “faculty culture” regarding outcomesassessment. While the engineering faculty have reached a high and stable level of conductingdirect and indirect assessment as a response to ABET’s accreditation criteria, the physics facultylag significantly in this respect, perhaps because their programs are not held to a similar level ofscrutiny for accreditation. A strong culture of assessment is a very good prerequisite to havebefore initiating a program like the SFIP as it exposes the faculty to the shortcomings in their

One of the world’s regions where engineeringeducation is rapidly evolving, and becoming increasingly international is: the ArabGulf Region ((Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, andOman), which faces significant challenges as it seeks to meet the demands

This is especially true of the Engineering isElementary (EiE) curriculum for grades K-8. EiE’s mission statement is “fostering engineeringand technological literacy for ALL elementary school-aged children.”16 The EiE curriculum issponsored by the National Center for Technological Literacy and is hosted by the Museum ofScience, Boston. Through curriculum development, research, and teacher professionaldevelopment, EiE disseminates engineering design-based curriculum for life science, earth andspace science, and physical science.
