program offered acommunity of diverse, like-minded peers and faculty mentors for the students. The studentsmentioned that their peer group was almost entirely based on knowing others from PreF orPathways Fellows. They felt they had experienced much together socially and that they felt theywould always have someone to go to talk about academic struggles. The trip taken by the groupto Peru, discussed more below, also played an important factor in the retention of some of thestudents as engineers, because it shed light on the way engineers can positively affect acommunity in need.Academically, the PreF program hosted at Penn State the summer before the students’ freshmanyear had the most significant impact on them. They reported that this program

, hiring committees and faculty mentors follow this implicit model of astraightforward academic pathway to the detriment of a diverse professoriate. We address thisby presenting an alternate model that better reflects alternate pathways that currently exist andcould be better encouraged and supported through infrastructure and social means.A Traditional Model of a Faculty CareerA traditional engineering faculty career moves from high school, to a bachelors degree, to a PhDprogram and then into a tenure track position, followed by promotions to associate and fullprofessor and then eventually a happy retirement, perhaps with an emeritus position to maintainan active mind until death. This is shown in Figure 2. In attempting to follow the

Some of Leslie’s inquiry facilitation commitments andhabits of mind such as requiring student reasoning, not giving away steps or answers, requiringgood data, giving up teacher authority, providing rich contexts, constructivist and socialconstructivist mindsets, and a growth model of learning

), engineering is now an integral part of K12 STEM education. Inparticular, engineering education is expected to “(1) focus on design and problem solving; (2)incorporate appropriate science, technology and mathematics (STEM) concepts; and (3)‘promote engineering habits of mind. (Sanders, 2009; NRC, 2012)” This has led to thedevelopment of new strategies and practices to integrate engineering curricula into traditionalK12 science classrooms (Berland). However, there are few studies that evaluate theeffectiveness of these innovative approaches to K12 STEM education to fully understand theirimpact on understanding of STEM concepts.In order to comply with the recent reform focused on integrating engineering into moretraditional science classrooms, teachers

Educational programs need to find new and better ways ofengaging young minds to foster a desire to explore technical subjects to prepare the nextgeneration of engineers. One approach to cultivate this desire is to design challenging hands-onprojects that require teamwork to accomplish the design goals. By emulating the process of anengineering manufacturing team, students can

studentsfeel intrinsically motivated to behave in proactive, open minded and collaborative manner, theexpected level of effort is high, and the expected level of persistence to arrive at an acceptablefinal design is high as well. Motivation of students needs to be across the curriculum [Sheppardet al, 2010], and it is important to consider how to best support early year engineering students’motivation and self-regulating learning [Nelson et al, 2015], due to the fact that in these years iswhen students are more likely to drop out [Gainen, 1995].There are many studies regarding the variety of factors, internal and external, that might affectmotivation in an individual.

In thisproject, a double sideband large carrier waveform is produced using a simple switchingmodulator circuit. The resulting amplitude modulation (AM) waveform is then demodulatedusing an envelope detector circuit. The proposed project requests that students perform a circuitsimulation as well as an actual circuit implementation. The circuit behavior is studied via bothanalysis using software tools and measurement using hardware components. The project furtherrequires that the electrical signals are visualized in both the time and frequency domain toenhance concept understanding. The paper
