The quality of these programs will be judged by the results ofstudies gathered in a literature review. The collected literature will also be used to define globaltrends in the current applications of ERs and in how educational tools are developing. Tocompliment this literature review, a survey will be distributed to instructors of robotics clubs inhigh schools to see if these programs align with global trends found in the literature review.Other goals of this study include identifying platforms and teaching methods that deserve moreattention for research and what platforms, tools, and methods have become outdated.1

In part this isdue to ABET’s requirement of a culminating design experience following the shift to EC-2000about two decades ago [3]. The resurgence of design is also due to: a recognition that designcourses can address a broad range of transferable skills thought important for graduates [4],design and problem solving align with the epistemological stance of engineers [5], the

forms of interdependence. These views of how expertise operates in team5settings treat expertise as something that is both easily identifiable within individuals and roles,and something that can be applied discretely to a particular task or problem. Indeed, over timedisciplines, professions and roles become affiliated with particular forms of expertise and assertjurisdiction over particular tasks and work roles (Abbott, 1988). However, these frameworks regarding the utilization of expertise in group settings relyupon assumptions about the practice of expert work that may not match how individuals operatein STEM laboratory settings. These perspectives start from a common fundamental assumptionthat experts know and/or have the tacit
