As a result, this requires quality science, technology,engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. However, few American students pursueeducation and training in the STEM fields.

Are there images or equations that would be just as effective if presented in their final form, or should you plan to develop those as you might in a face-to-face course?. Remember students have a pause button they do not have in a live class where writing and reflective time is important. Shorter videos also ease your burden as there is less cost associated with technical glitches or individual errors that can wipe out a recording in process. 6. Accountability and Engagement.

Notably, these key individuals were often male familymembers: fathers, grandfathers, and uncles. No student provided an example of doing somethingthey saw as engineering with a female family member. Although boys referred to theseexperiences more often, they were not exclusive to boys.

. Given that engineering starts and endswith people, it may be helpful to have students reflect on the impacts of their design work onstakeholders and the environment at different phases within the design process. Lastly, this resultalso highlights the need for the broader engineering design curriculum within senior design andpossibly earlier required courses to examine how to better support students’ thinking about theimplications of engineering and its relationship to society.The lack of deep consideration for stakeholders seen in the preliminary results of this work inprogress is consistent with previous studies of students from a large public institution.Researchers found that learning activities focused on stakeholders supported students
