inquiry based science and math instruction using a design context can develop learners’competencies including cognitive models of how systems work, communication skills, the abilityto synthesize ideas, STEM knowledge, and the ability to evaluate designs20.(d) an ability to function on multidisciplinary teamsAn integral part of the work of engineers and most professions is the ability to work effectivelyin teams. Engineers often collaborate with people from various fields in order to effectivelydesign solutions. One of three general principles that have been proposed for K-12 engineeringeducation is to promote engineering habits of mind, which include collaboration1. K-12engineering education should involve students working in teams on design

students feel lost, afraid, and confused along the way.In her monograph, they’re Not Dumb, They’re Different: Stalking the Second Tier (29),Sheila Tobias echoes some of these concerns. Her work addresses some specificclassroom characteristics that, if paid attention to, might help calm down the secondtier students (i.e., those high achievers who are serious about their learning andcareer goals but who, for some reason, chose to opt out of engineering).Tobias assertsthat many traditional science courses suffer from lack of community( both betweenthe instructor and the students and among the students themselves) and that manystudents desire this relationship and become more successful learners when itprevails in the classroom.

historical and social context of key problems associated with equal educational achievementin pre-college education was discussed in a three-year study conducted in elementary andsecondary classrooms in four states on teacher interaction patterns with their students.4 Some ofthe findings indicated that teachers interacted more with male students; boys were more likely tocall out answers; minority females were asked the fewest number of questions; and the samepatterns of interaction were observed among teachers regardless of the teachers’ gender andethnicity. Several ideas for organizing the classroom and questioning strategies to eliminate biasassociated with academic achievement involve providing opportunities that allow all students toparticipate

That is,engineering consulting rapidly drives home the fact that design, research, development, andmarketing in the nonacademic world are often multidisciplinary in nature. Real problems don’tlend themselves very well to formal academic boundaries and the new engineering consultantrapidly is forced to expand knowledge, skills, and outlook to a variety of disciplines in order toarrive at optimum solutions and interact with clients

undergraduate course is ‘good enough’ for their needs in agraduate program and you are telling the undergraduate students that the course is suitedfor graduate-level credit, thus setting up false expectations for student success and qualityof the various courses. Dedicated undergraduate and dedicated graduate courses are muchmore effective in my opinion.

There should be a deeper discussion about thetopic, as well as more personalized assignments that directly relate to graduate research,rather than just a regurgitation of the lecture.”Category #2: Reasons why piggybacking can’t be effective in some courses.
