engineering literacy is needed – Prof. Carl O.

The process leading to this appendix began in 2017 at the ASEEAnnual Meeting and Exposition with intense discussion that continued through continuedthrough the 2019 ASEE Annual Meeting and Exposition on clarifying and amplifying thedefinition of engineering and technological literacy and how it can be extended to thecommon good.From the many papers published in ASEE conference proceedings the expressed need hasbeen to

We found thatthe use of a regionally-centered, in-person event catalyzed participation in the region more thanany previously attempted recruitment efforts, including offers of financial support and meetingswith school leaders. Surveys were administered to a subset of participating teachers and students in the region,allowing for insights into how participants experienced the program in this setting. Outcomesassessed in the student survey include math interest, science interest, self-efficacy forschoolwork, and creative problem solving. Outcomes assessed in the teacher survey includeperceived impact of the program on students, motivation for participating in the program, andself
the foundation stones of an arch, the new courses are called “Springers”because they serve as the foundations of the transformed curriculum. Through a project-basedlearning approach, Springer courses mimic the senior capstone experience by immersing studentsin a semester-long practical application of civil engineering , exposing them to concepts andtools in a way that challenges students to develop new knowledge that they will build on and useduring their junior and senior years. In the 2019 spring semester, a pilot of the first Springercourse introduced students to three civil engineering sub-disciplines: construction management,water resources, and transportation. The remaining sub-disciplines are covered in a follow-onSpringer 2 pilot. The

year over year changes in Creating & Making willhelp to confirm further analysis of this initial finding.Expansion of survey depth was identified as an area of improvement in this study. With thestatements generated and evaluated by a sole researcher it is imperative to expand the dataset togradate the distribution of what constitutes liberal arts, active learning and engineering elements.To refine this distribution a further survey will be conducted at the annual ASEE conference inorder to survey a more sophisticated population of engineering education researchers.References [1] D.A.

A PCFA is a method by which some true confirmatory factoranalytic (CFA) fit statistics can be estimated without the use of structural equation modellingtechniques or software [2].

% of employers complain that candidates are lacking in motivation, communicationskills, punctuality, and flexibility. Hence, it is important to investigate techniques that will improvefactors such as quality and timeliness, thereby providing a more holistic academic experience toSTEM students. Furthermore, there is an acute need to develop professional skills such as writing,communication, punctuality, and curiosity. It is important to consider every opportunity to develop professional skills by introducing appro-priate interventions in every course. This will reinforce the development of these skills throughoutthe undergraduate years (Rao et al., 2019). Three major forces are shaping higher education in the U.S. These consist of the rising
