Motivated by the aforementioned reasons, and by furtherconsidering [18],[19], entrepreneurship was included as an integral component of the roboticseducation workshop for high school participants conducted at the NYU Tandon School ofEngineering in summer 2018.To effectively and seamlessly integrate robotics and entrepreneurship in our curriculum, theproject team brainstormed and envisioned real-world projects (discussed in later sections) asdesign challenges for summer workshop participants.

Although shortlaboratory reports and two presentations were required and graded, there was not explicitinstruction or feedback given on writing. Instead, a majority of the focus of technicalcommunication instruction was on developing clear and well formatted plots and tables.Integrating an additional writing assignment explicitly designed with a revision process couldgive students an idea of what college level scientific writing looks like.Section Lecture/Activity Excel + Computer Math Laboratory

Purpose of ProgramThe purpose of our Smart Grid summer camp is to provide opportunity for high school studentsto learn the present and future of energy and power systems through a combination of lecturesand hands-on activities. Our program defines a smart grid as a power system that is sensor- andactuator-rich, and is enabled by versatile communication and control systems. An essentialrequirement of a smart grid is its ability to allow reliable integration of renewable resources withappropriate transmission and distribution infrastructure.

‘It’s Nothing Like October Sky!’: Spurring 9 & 10th Graders to Think Like Engineers via Rockets th Custom-Designed for Maximum AltitudeAbstractK-12 STEM education literature reveals that conventional and traditional math, science, andcomputer programming classes often fail to effectively “do the ‘E’ in STEM”. New grade-level-appropriate curricula are required to address this omission. This paper presents and evaluates amodel-rocket-based curriculum implemented in a stand-alone STEM course required for all 9thand 10th graders at a private high school. The project is unique because it melds the followingfive attributes into an open-ended, hands-on, high-school-level engineering design-and

that in order to learn how to give and receive engineering design feedback, students needto be placed in situations where feedback serves an authentic purpose for a design task.The curriculum development project in which this study took place has an explicit goal ofenabling underrepresented minority students to see engineering as a way to take action onproblems that matter to their communities (Dalvi, Wendell, & Johnson, 2016). One way in whichwe are working toward this goal is by inviting community members to give feedback to studentswhen they are defining the parameters of their engineering design problem. Another way we aresupporting student engagement in engineering is by creating structured opportunities for them togive feedback on

There is an urgent need for K-12 teachers to develop the pedagogicalskills necessary to enhance student learning of computational thinking skills in STEM contexts[9]. There is also a general need (1) for teachers to understand technology use in the context ofthe STEM application, e.g. engineering design, (2) for redesign of pre-service courses and in-service workshops aimed at integrated STEM instruction, and (3) for STEM teachers of differentcontent areas to work together [10].There has been considerable work in the STEM community, in particular in Computer Scienceand

As an increasing number of states adopt the NGSS, there is mountingpressure to prepare science educators for the impending changes in expectations, curriculum, andassessment.There are significant challenges as states transition their science standards to align with NGSS,such as insufficient professional development and support for teachers, inconsistency ofimplementation, and inadequate time and curricular resources [3].

standardization is well-established, and the need has persisted since the inception ofpre-college engineering education (Chandler et al., 2011). The field currently lacks an adequatenumber of programs to learn from. Engineering often gets lost either as an integrated disciplineunder science standards or as a topic under technology education. The question is whetherengineering belongs embedded within science or technology education. The recent release of theFramework for P-12 Engineering Learning is a strong foundational step toward futurestandardization efforts of engineering-specific education (AEEE & ASEE, 2020). The frameworkshould lead toward generating and implementing a cohesive engineering curriculum in alignmentwith state requirements rather
