If a child enjoys the workshop, they’ll be more inclined to remember theengineering concepts or the field itself. This is why the members of Vaughn’s SWE Chapterworked hard to develop a project idea that would best fit the background of the students. Theworkshop should be able to spark engineering interests in young minds. It should be simple, fun,and most importantly, educational, i.e. visible and understandable.Music can be seen as a universal language because of its presence in every culture, religion, orregion.

Research also showsthat without proper training and development, teachers may perceive such curriculum andchanges negatively which, in turn, affects how they teach[14]. The implementation of thisengineering unit faces similar challenges. The teachers recruited to teach this curriculum in theBoston Public schools are mostly math, science, and technology teachers. These teachers dohave strong math and science backgrounds; however, most of them, including the technologyteachers, do not have any formal training in engineering.

These identities mustbalance individual affiliation with three aspects of a field: doing (hands on practices), being(habits of mind), and becoming (professional aspirations) [19]. Individuals construct theseidentities over time via interaction with material and social contexts [20, 21]. As individuals gainexperience over time, particularly in real-world vs. classroom settings, these aspects maydevelop at different rates. Thus, to understand the professional formation of

are available for this task, the Draw-an-Engineer-Test (DAET) has been used in many studies because of its ability to discern the tasks andenvironments that make up the work of an engineer in students’ minds. Part of the usefulness ofthis tool is that it allows for interpretation of students’ thoughts about the use of math andscience in engineering, the role of gender and collaboration, and what an engineer does(Capobianco et al., 2011; Chou & Chen, 2017; Farland-Smith & Tiarani, 2016; Newley et al.,2017).

the chemical engineering curriculum. Nevertheless, after two years ofexperience, this approach leads to obvious advantages.The first advantage is to help the students in co-op program and in the Process Analysis(Material and Energy Balance) course. Most of our co-op students use one of thesimulation packages (such as ASPEN, Pro/II, HYSYS, or WinSim) during their co-opterms. CAMS prepares them early enough that they are able to move into the workingsituation quickly to solve practical problems in industry. When the co-op students comeback to school to learn the fundamental principles in junior/senior engineering basiccourses, they already have this “problem based learning” pedagogical mind-set. This helpsto pave the way for “problem based
