duration, itis not anticipated that any Survey course will fill the entire matrix, but it would be expected thatno row will be entirely blank – if it is, then it will not likely qualify as a good Survey course.Meanwhile, a column could be blank if a technology topic area is not covered due to time limits,but a good Survey will likely cover most of these technology areas.Technological Literacy Focus Courses will go into great depth within one or more technologytopic areas (see Figure 2b) with a higher percentage of C and D values in that column(s) whencompared to a Tech Lit Survey Course.Technological Literacy Design Courses and Critique, Assess, Reflect, or Connect (CARC)Courses will cover these respective rows in the matrix for one or more of the

Students measured how long it takes to make a copy. The objective is toreduce that time. The solution is replacing the copy room.

student math and science performance has beento use inquiry learning for promoting teachers’ deep understanding of foundational STEM(science, technology, engineering, and math) concepts and the processes and the connectionsbetween them. Research shows that STEM teachers in U. S. schools lack content knowledge andmastery of subject-related pedagogy that enables them to teach content most effectively1. Theyalso lack a sense of the connections among concepts that reveal mathematics as an internallylogical and coherent system of knowledge2. This forces teachers to use lectures to deliver Page 13.241.3content, which emphasizes procedure over engagement

Clubs were established with a math, science ortech ed teacher (or teachers) serving as club sponsor(s) and were encouraged to develop individualidentities that best served their populations. DiET also established the basis for annual competitions heldon the UNC-Charlotte campus, as well as offering high school summer camps through the UNC-Charlottesummer programs office.Phase II of this effort, Enhancing Diversity in Engineering Technology (NSF

S. population is like me (and Ican’t quote an exact source for this number either – I got it from learning psychologist FredKeller7 in a conversation with him). I don’t receive vocal information as efficiently as I do whenI read about something – I can always read text over again, but it isn’t usually possible to“replay” a lecture or a conversation. So my learning skills don’t match the lower levels of Dale’sCone. But after 43 years of teaching engineering subjects I am quite comfortable with the ideasthat, for most engineering students, Visual Receiving is superior
