Summer 2014 – Physical Sciences This camp is for students with a passion for physical sciences and engineering. By the end of the week you will be able to impress your family and friends with cool experiments and scientific facts! This camp will explore many fascinating topics including experimentation with LEGO Mindstorm Robotics. Participants will get a chance to work in University of Calgary classrooms and laboratories and they will be taught by University of Calgary students in the faculties of Science, Engineering and Education. A portion of the activities are based on the

university,and via the curriculum.In the case of this curriculum development project, the need to adhere to ABET requirements forcurriculum was very clear. Perhaps not so clear was the usefulness of the NCEES FundamentalExam content in making specific curricular decisions. Also, the college mission was a factor as itcalls for a liberal education perspective to be linked to the university’s pre-professionalprograms, and requires 46 credits of general education that must be accommodated in alluniversity degree programs. Resource limitations needed to be considered in the development ofthis program in terms of classroom and laboratory development.
