. Students undertaking this exercise are working toward a metricbased on sound engineering design, in contrast to the victory-based metrics typically associated(in the students’ minds) with robotics competitions. The proposed format allows students a trulyopen-ended experience, since they must develop problem specifications themselves. Instructorsupport is required to assist in the development of an appropriate problem as well as during thedesign phase, but a well-prepared instructor can look forward to an extremely beneficial exercisethat strongly motivates students and provides substantial dividends for the students in regards torobotics and engineering design in general.IntroductionRobot design is a challenging topic to teach in a traditional

This also provides a necessary connection in children’s mind betweenconsumer products and processes that bring these products into existence. It has been suggestedthat this design extends the straightforward appearance of an interactive exhibit accessible byonly a computer screen and a mouse on a table. The screen is embedded into the “coffee mug,”and the game can be played

Attracting Girls to Technology: Reach Them Before High School Frank Lanzer Anne Arundel Community CollegeAbstractToday, a technology company may “feel good” if 30% of their employees are women butmost will not be engineers. This reflects the facts provided by the National ScienceFoundation showing 35% of the undergraduates in science and math majors are women,while only 10% are in engineering. It’s no wonder that many girls and young womenperceive these fields as “for men”. Recent research shows attitudes and perceptions beingdeveloped early in the secondary education process.During this discussion, current statistics and research with

Keep in mind that advisory groups do not have formal authority togovern the organization, that is, they cannot issue directives that must be followed. Rather,advisory groups serve to make recommendations and/or provide key information, materials, andresources to the program’s leadership.3We have been fortunate to attract industry leaders from different parts of the constructionindustry to actively participate on the advisory board and

For example, theconstruction industry uses weather information to schedule specific activities and to purchasematerials. K-12 teachers use weather data to develop math and engineering skills in theirstudents, which is essential for the future [4, 5, 6]. Following the classic Boyer Report, it is very important that no gap exists between teachingand research [7]. In addition, faculty members who creatively combine teaching with researchare essential to the improvement of undergraduate education [8, 9, 10, 11].
