, was a seven week long summerresearch experience designed for high school students entering 10-12 th grade. The main goal ofthe program was to provide young women and underrepresented minority high school studentswith a laboratory research experience and inspire them to enter college and pursue STEM degrees. Each summer, students from local high schools were selected to participate in laboratoryresearch as scholars under the supervision of a mentoring graduate student and faculty member.Each team composed of two YSs and their graduate mentor tackled problems innanomanufacturing and made significant contributions to ongoing research projects. At the endof the program, each high school student gave a final presentation of the results to

Lectures were followedby a hands-on laboratory class or a computer-based activity where students could apply the basicprinciples of transportation engineering to solve a problem related to each mode oftransportation. Finally, field trips were arranged to help students connect the theory and hands-onactivities to real-world engineering and aviation applications. A Likert scale questionnaire wasused to inquire about participants’ opinions of STEM and to assess the effectiveness of theprogram in introducing students to STEM. This paper reflects on opportunities and challenges indeveloping and implementing the curriculum and suggests improvements to it.IntroductionHigh school students

Immersingteachers in laboratory settings and research experiences has also been effective at increasing highschool teachers’ self-efficacy in content areas such as nanotechnology [21], as well as shiftingtheir perceptions of engineering as a field [22].

(SSI) have received increased attention from many science andengineering educators, as it provides a meaningful learning opportunity to improve students'argumentation skills [4] - [7]. In the SSI environment, students can formulate positions, negotiatediverse ideas, and make decisions about important issues directly related to their everyday life [8].The problems in SSI contexts are “more open-ended, debatable, complex, or ill-structured” [9,p.140] than the general scientific hypothesis in the laboratory. In this kind of environment, studentsare required to apply their epistemic understanding of argument (i.e., what counts as good evidence,what counts as a good claim) to debate, reach a consensus, or make decisions [10] - [12].Sadler [6
