%) reported that they intend toattend college. Of those intending to attend college, (57%) plan to major in a STEM discipline.Following the camp, students were asked about their academic interests. Student participantsreported their degree of interest in Language Arts, Social Studies, Mathematics, and Science on a6‐point Likert scale (1 = Not Interested at All, 6 = Very Interested). The student participantswere most interested in Science (M = 5.43, SD = 1.03), followed by Mathematics (M = 4.38, SD= 1.56), Social Studies (M = 4.09, SD = 1.68), and Language Arts (M = 2.86, S = 1.42).When trying to look at motivation of students to participate in STEM disciplines, the internalevaluation team developed instrumentation to measure the impact of project

experience. However, the schoolcannot easily create that holistic experience by itself. Nor can it accomplish thatintegrated engineering education mission with good but standalone or isolatedengineering lessons and activities.The engineering education community must get involved in the integration process andthose engineering faculty member(s) must have a long-term commitment to the targetschool. Initially, that commitment will be a very large time, talent, and tenacityinvestment on the engineers’ part. Big hurdles included the elementary educator’s lack ofengineering knowledge as well as their typically weak math backgrounds; finding theright materials to support the engineering challenges; building meaningful hands-onactivities with learning

Worth noting is thattheir STEM library activities are made possible through cooperation with the Dakota ScienceCenter (module developers) and the University of North Dakota College of Engineering and1 Brophy, S., Klein, S., Portsmore, M., Rogers, C.; Advancing Engineering Education in P-12 Classrooms; Journal ofEngineering Education, 2008.2 Committee on Standards for K-12 Engineering Education; Standards for K-12 Engineering
