We recognize that both panelsand publications have limited impact, and hope to reimagine both and open doors for more realcommunication and impact on critical topics.

In support of the fourth imperative, our workshops are to provide a brief yetthoughtful introduction to some of the important scientific and engineering challengesinvolved in NASA’s complex missions and to relate this to grades 6-12 science andmathematics education. This paper describes our workshop components relating topower and performance and the experiences of teachers in learning more aboutpropulsion and flight. Care was taken to provide teachers with basic materials so that theycould stimulate young minds. Building on this, students should learn

Since thedifficulties among students were different, it is likely that their minds and bodies were trying toendure the toll this project was taking on them. The constant stress of being in an unfamiliarcountry, verbally communicating with the community (for some) was very difficult if notimpossible, and attempting to engineer and teach the communities members about a filteringsystem was physically and emotionally draining.In overcoming these conflicts, participants learned about leadership and teamwork, bonded

If the engineer uses one side of thepotentiometer and the center of it, he/she now has a continuously adjustable resistor or an analogvariable resistor. However, if the engineer uses a decade resistor box (has several resistors in onebox) he/she has a discrete adjustable resistor or a digital variable resistor.2.2.

For example, a study participant had thefollowing views. “A lot of students are stressed a lot of the time, so any opportunities, they have to help students remember to be mindful. Mental and emotional support is needed. Reminding students to drink water during the class could be really helpful.” (Student 2).Simple steps taken by the institution to help remind students to be mindful could prove vital topositively influence the MHW of engineering undergraduates.
