I also help plan events and projects for the program as a member of both the social and mentorship committees. As the Ohio State University Pistol Club Vice President I have gained valuable experience as a leader; teaching members how to properly and safely handle a pistol. Besides being involved with these activities I enjoy volunteering for my high school Science Olympiad team.

EngineeringFaculties’ Responses to Nature of Engineering Instrument (Work-In-Progress) AbstractEngineering faculty have advanced experiences with engineering that non-engineers do nothave, but what Nature of Engineering (NOE) concepts do engineering researchers hold? For K-12 engineering education, having an informed NOE understanding is an essential part ofengineering literacy. Yet for the higher education engineering community, NOE is hardly everdiscussed. Understanding engineering faculties’ NOE views can be a valuable contribution tocurrent NOE research.

This method is based on designing or creatingproduct, solving problem, investigating, and developing an answer (J Dewey, 1980; J Dewey,2008; Kilpatrick, 1918). The PBL approach improves group work skills and collaboration whilekeeping students more engaged in learning by keeping them motivated as the key element of thisstrategy (Harun, Yusof, Jamaludin, & Hassan, 2012; Huang, 2010).
