students must becomerepresentative of the nation’s population. This call is especially pronounced in the field ofengineering.These representative numbers can only be realized through increased preparation of college-agestudents. Undergraduate engineering has become a test bed for pedagogy to increase studentinterest and abilities, reflecting the progress of cognitive development research in STEMlearning. Analysis of best practices can improve instruction at all levels, including K-12. Aboveall, an environment to nurture problem solving and innovation skills is imperative.Unfortunately, there are few K-12 settings for students to obtain real-world experience that mightattract them to STEM careers.

Defining integrated STEM education isfurther complicated by the fact that connections can be reflected at more than one level at thesame time: in the student’s thinking or behavior, in the teacher’s instruction, in the curriculum,between and among teachers themselves, or in larger units of the education system, such as theorganization of an

The students designed and built a verysimple but effective water heater using local materials and costing less that $100 to build. Thedesign was very specific to the region as the proximity of Costa Rica to the equator allowed ashallow angle for the panel that water flowed over which contributed to a measured 70˚Ftemperature gain which made the design applicable and effective for the design challenge. Upon completion of the trip, students were required to write a reflective project report andpresent the experience to an audience through the avenue of the undergraduate researchsymposium at MSU Denver

In addition to promoting outcomes that benefit all studentsregardless of career aspirations such as increased math and science achievement and greatertechnological literacy, K-12 engineering programs have been identified as a means of recruitingand retaining potential students in engineering.The growth of precollege engineering programs means that increasing numbers of incomingengineering students will have had some exposure to engineering prior to their enrollment inengineering programs.

One early studyof more than 36,000 college students found that a student’s high school records and SAT scoreswere positively related to academic performance in college18.

courses contributed to their views of SR. Atthe small public university all of the civil and environmental engineering students worked on SL projects,but 21% still indicated that none of their courses contributed to their understanding of SR. These resultsseem to indicate that the impacts of courses on the SR of students may be more limited than instructorsintend. This may reflect a typical dichotomy between “what is taught” versus “what is learned”. It mayalso indicate that instructors should use reflective essays or in-class discussions to encouragemetacognition and thinking around how engineering can and should try to positively impact society andhelp underserved populations.26Ethics provides a counter example to the minimal impact of courses
