who participate in Physics Jam are more successfulin physics than their peers who do not.This paper will discuss the successes, obstacles, and best practices in developing andimplementing this pre-semester physics preparation “bootcamp.”1. IntroductionThere is a large push from multiple directions to increase the number of students in the UnitedStates graduating with STEM degrees. Recent projections show that there must be a 34%increase of students graduating in STEM fields within the next decade to allow the US to remaincompetitive on the world stage. (1) There are numerous academic routes for students to enter aSTEM field. Due to the rising cost of traditional 4-year degrees, including a 40% increase intuition, room, and board between 2002

college directly from high school.In this paper we describe how our program connected transfer students with university staff,faculty and resources. To date, this program has a 100% retention rate, with the exception of onestudent on an official leave of absence, and a projected 100% graduation rate with 91% of thestudents already graduated. In addition, approximately 22% of scholarship graduates arepursuing graduate degrees.IntroductionBoise State University’s College of Engineering was founded nearly two decades ago inresponse to regional demand for engineering education from industry leaders. The College ofEngineering student body now comprises approximately 3,000 students, reflecting approximately15% of the university’s enrollment. In 2014-15

Each participant was asked to bring a previously defined concept forthe project they were engaged in within their course, and all students had been previouslyrequired to complete some form of user or market research to inform their project. The entireexercise was audio and video recorded (Figure 2), and all sketches and notes the participantsgenerated were retained and scanned for further analysis.The empathic walkthrough method was conducted twice for each dyad, with each participant’sconcept serving as an encapsulated use of the method, approximately 30 minutes in duration.Dyad A was used as

high school. In the caseof the former population, our robotics camp research shows that boys need “confirmation” tocontinue strongly in engineering, whereas girls need “confirmation” after “affirmation” and“visualization.” Based on the above finding, we believe that the approaches to encourage middleschool boys to proceed towards STEM careers and the approaches to encourage middle schoolgirls to proceed towards STEM careers must have some similar elements and yet be necessarilydifferent.A study that shows the difference between boys and girls was done very early in ourcollaborative project. Collin College asked questions of Allen ISD students that were judged tobe “good” in 7th and 8th grade math by test scores and teachers. The simple study

The majority of the eleven enrolled upper class studentsmajored in Mechanical Engineering while the rest of the students majored in AerospaceEngineering. In order to ensure all the students could understand course topics, lessons weretaught progressively, starting with a simple topic then building into more complex topics. The course was divided into four portions: lecture, an interactive lecture series, labsections, and final project lecture series. Lectures were held twice a week in a classroom settingand discussed fuel cell fundamentals. Table 1 shows the discussion topics such as fuel

MaterialsIntroductionThe work reported in this paper begins with the end of a previous research project. Our earlierwork investigated student understanding of mechanics of materials1–3. After describing howstudents understand this topic, we wanted to move on to developing course materials to helpbuild on students’ existing understanding and address misconceptions. This is not an unusualprogression, and, indeed, our initial research in this area showed us that most course materialsthat are developed from research never achieve broad adoption4. Many engineering educatorsdevelop their own materials, duplicating researchers’ efforts and potentially denying students thebenefit of research-based materials with proven effectiveness. The lack of adoption is a

The engineeringprograms at Wentworth Institute of Technology strongly focus on project-based learning.Devices and prototyping are therefore an integral part of many of the courses for which physicsis a prerequisite. Hence, it is essential that students leave with a working knowledge of basiccircuit concepts as well as an appreciation for the complexity that can arise in circuit analysis.Given this population, the main learning outcomes of the new game-based exercise were forstudents to: 1. Demonstrate the ability to add resistors in series. 2. Demonstrate an ability to add resistors in parallel. 3. Decompose a complex circuit into its basic elements. 4
