include a section on science. While the results of these tests may not behigh stakes in terms of sanctions on a school, district or individual teacher, they certainly havehigh stakes for the students as their scores determine whether or not they will graduate from highschool. As a result, there is an ongoing tension between STEM-related reforms, often initiated byfederal agencies and universities, and test preparation practices K-12 educators perceive willresult in higher scores on standardized tests. To further complicate matters, standardized testsconsist of largely multiple choice questions and are therefore not necessarily reliable indicatorsof students’ reasoning and problem solving skills (Burkhardt, 2012).

As we hope this paper makes clear, it takes a great deal ofresearch and analysis to understand the complexities of differences in legal and regulatorysystems and how those systems relate to differences in values and preferences. From a curricularpoint of view, we cannot reasonably expect to provide students with all the kinds of knowledgethey would need to collaborate across all polities globally (any more than we could expect themto learn all the languages their engineering collaborators might speak).

The reasons for this decline, according to programfaculty, staff, and students, included marginalization of the capstone course in the curriculum,lax enforcement of course prerequisites, inconsistent exam weighting, and student apathy. Thesubstandard results appeared not to be due to insufficient student engagement outside of theclassroom, given that the program offers three cooperative education opportunities, inter-collegiate student academic competitions, and an active industry advisory board.

struggling to advance research programs with a only few graduate students,to collaborate in research activities in a mostly extracurricular and informal environment.Therefore, one of the main motivations for starting a VIP program in our school was to betterarticulate the extra curricular research work that some faculty were already undertaking withundergraduate students. This allows students, on one side, to be in contact with researchactivities in more formal and possibly more rewarding conditions. Faculty, on the other side, canget critical junior members for their groups to help advance their research agendas. Ourimmediate goals regarding our VIP program are: Begin achieving technical results, in the form of prototypes, software and
