these barriers, results showed that student CT improved overall. Although a statistical comparison showed that scores from the United States were higher than the scores from Kuwait, Kuwaiti females scored statistically higher than US females for CT abilities. Therefore, the investigation concludes that the STEM outreach program effectively promoted CT concepts in Kuwait.IntroductionThe objective of computational thinking (CT) is to increase computer science (CS)knowledge so that students can take what they learn in the classroom and laboratory andapply that knowledge to the modern workplace. Early CT exposure is critical for futureeducational outcomes because it helps students understand the connection between

approach is that it lacks a certain “WOW” factor1 that sparks student interest andentices engagement and active learning. Accordingly, a significant body of literature related tohands-on, design-build-test (DBT) projects has grown to address the gaps in student engagementand between classroom theory and practical implementation.2-6 The relative merits and demeritsof DBT-type projects over pre-designed laboratory experiments are discussed elsewhere;2,3nevertheless, in parsing the design ambiguities associated with open-ended DBT projects,students certainly employ some non-technical competencies such as imagination andresourcefulness. These skills are desirable in engineering graduates, but are typically notexercised in pre-designed laboratory

Comics Experiences and Assessment In general, students responded positively to the comics, finding them enjoyable to read and use. Inseveral sections over two years of Transport Laboratory I, students repeatedly cited the “Data Analysis”and “Uncertainty” comics in for their laboratory reports based on the documentation and explanation ofcertain principles and equations. The uncertainty propagation equations presented in the “Uncertainty”comic were a common point of reference, reinforcing the potential of a comic visual approach even toequations. In an anonymous survey, students were asked to comment on the implementation of thecomics and their usefulness; students’ positive comments to the “Uncertainty” comic included:  “Hard topic to
