in the ClassroomMany have recognized the potential uses of drones within the classroom; however, there has beenlittle work on how they can be successfully integrated within the existing curriculum. It can beargued that this may be related to concerns about safety, security, privacy and liability. However,drones have been successfully incorporated into existing outreach activities to encourage studentsto pursue careers in science and engineering by many 5 15 11 . This makes arguments about safetyand security difficult to support. One possible reason for the slow uptake of UAVs within thewider curriculum may be because they are perceived to be “toys” 15 . This may lead people tooverlook their potential to revolutionize the computer engineering

dependence on computers seriouslychallenges educators to provide information in more dynamic, compelling, thorough, andinteractive ways. Furthermore, shortened attention spans impede students from staying engagedand focused in math and science classrooms, resulting in poorer performance and diminishedinterest in pursuing technical careers. It has been shown that student involvement through hands-on activities and tinkering in and out the classroom can and does help student engage, focus andlearn better basic and more advanced engineering concepts. It is also important to note that suchstudent engagement has also been identified as a key factor in remedying the achievement gapamong minority populations.

There is no doubt that these expectations arecritical for STEM majors who are entering the ever-changing, high-tech workforce as well asthose pursuing academic careers. In the Engineer of 2020 (2004), the National Academy ofEngineers (NAE) highlighted the importance of education that prepares students for a rapidlychanging, global, technologically advanced, and innovative workplace. In order to be successfulin such an environment the NAE outlined the characteristics of the future engineer.

Principal Investigator John Mather learned thislesson early in his career. During his graduate studies, Mather designed a balloon payloadintended to measure cosmic background radiation. He and his team had grown tired of testingand forewent some of their planned tests. The payload failed. “Testing is tiresome, tedious,boring, and essential,” said Mather. “If you do not test it, it will not work.”27 Years later, afterMather set aside his involvement in research related to cosmic background radiation, NASAoffered him the opportunity to fly the experiment in space on the Cosmic Background Explorer(COBE). A mission fraught with challenges and multiple redesigns, he carried the lessons of hisfailed graduate experiment with him: test, test, test. The

Jonassen further described the trial and error as “randomlyattack[ing] any section of the system where the possible fault might have occurred,” which alignswith the operational definition for this descriptor as used in the analysis (an iterative process oftrying out different variables or options until the task is accomplished or a solution is reached).
