These concepts include thrust, impulse, drag force, payload, ascent and descent (with and without a parachute) times, speed, and acceleration. The importance of the future courses in physics are emphasized. These activities constitute one of two team projects of a 1.5 credit portion of a two-credit course in exploration of engineering and technology at the Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. Students learn many skills they need later in their studies and professional practice such as spreadsheet data entry and mathematical operations. Not the least of which is teamwork, a skill that they acquire as they organize into groups with

to lead outside the formal curriculum    AbstractLeadership has historically been part of professional engineers’ work life, but until recently itwas not integrated into the formal engineering curriculum. With the support of the NationalAcademy of Engineering and Engineers Canada along with regulatory pressures from theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology and the Canadian EngineeringAccreditation Board, committed engineering educators with ties to industry have begun to takeup this curricular challenge in greater numbers. Unfortunately, many of these programs touchonly a small segment of the student body because they remain on the periphery of engineeringfaculties. As a result, we know little about the
