agencies, such as the National Science Foundation and Department of Education, with a role in supporting K–12 STEM education should fund research on topics relevant to the professional development of practicing and the education of prospective K–12 teachers of engineering. To the extent practicable, the efforts should take advantage of methods, such as design research, that encourage collaboration with stakeholders and existing reform efforts. Pressing issues include: • Describe the subject-matter content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge required for high-quality K–12 engineering education and how this knowledge varies across grade levels. • Describe pedagogical

As apart of working in teams, students were expected to take on alternative perspectives inlistening, working, and communicating effectively with one another.

Any similar symptoms to COVID-19 experienced by individuals has been found to causesevere anxiety and fear among students.The lack of access to Laboratory test equipment has had the greatest impact in engineering andengineering technology courses, many of which have a laboratory component. Simulationexercises have mostly been used to address this need, but students have complained that theseexercises do not have the same feel as training of actual laboratory test equipment. The gradualreopening of campus facilities with strict Covid policies in place has helped some to alleviate thisproblem.IV. Capstone Design Project Issues with

water damage, as moisture cannot move equally throughout both materials. Theeffects of this water intrusion include spalling, stains, efflorescence, algae growth, and a decreasein insulating properties. The best way to continue preservation is to block moisture from enteringthe brick using a water repelling penetrant. This research will compare the most commonly usedpenetrants on low-fire brick and determine which product is best for preservation. Waterrepelling abilities as well as water vapor permeability will be tested using: Rilem tubes, afreeze/thaw chamber, and the ASTM water vapor permeability test. The penetrants being testedare: siloxane and room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone.Background Antique brick made circa 1500 BC – 1900

. Previous research supports science self-efficacy asbeing positively associated with achieving science literacy (Bryan, Glynn, & Kittleson, 2011)and science achievement (Britner & Pajares, 2001). This study examines if exposing students toyoung model “engineering experts” would impact middle schoolers’ science self-efficacy. If so,the motivation for k-12 teachers to invite engineers into their classroom is two fold. It increasesstudents’ awareness of engineering careers as well as increases student’s achievement in science.But would such a short intervention have an impact?
