of this six week program for K-12 STEM teachers and pre-serviceteachers entitled Engineering Innovation and Design for STEM Teachers was to enhance theknowledge of teachers and pre-service teachers about engineering innovation and design so thatthey can facilitate inspirational engineering and innovation experiences in their classrooms aswell as better inform their students of potential career fields and societal needs related to STEM.During the first and second summers of this program, ten teachers and five pre-service teacherswere placed on teams with an engineering student, engineering faculty and an industrial mentoror community partner. Each team participated in an introductory engineering innovation anddesign project as well as a more

The firm presents a series of engineering tasks tothe students. Each of the tasks represents a problem focused on one of the civil engineeringconcentrations. Working in teams, the students consult with the firms’ field experts to recognizethe complexities of the problems. They then use their theoretical knowledge to developconceptual solutions. In addition to gains in experiential knowledge, the retreat provides anopportunity for the students to network with the firm’s top engineers and more importantly withtheir fellow classmates.

Central to this project is a study by NASA, who startedcontracting major corporations (i.e. Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Cessna, etc.) to address about30 years (N+3) of future technologies concerning the use of hybrid electric aircraft forcommercial use by 2030-2035.

These projects were 15% of the overall final grade and were based on theconcepts taught in the class, which would usually be a combination of 2 topics, and the studentshad to submit a weekly report of the project. This report was a simple documentation whichdescribed what they did that week and their future work. Due to these deadlines, students had toengage and work together every week. Students usually spend upwards of 3 - 4 hours every weekon these projects. This method has helped students set up

To address the effectiveness of knowledge transfer and to make the DigitalElectronics (DE) classroom experience more productive, several pedagogical approaches such asactive learning with a hands-on approach, scaffolding, project-based learning, authentic and real-world learning, simulation within the classroom environment, and teamwork have been found tobe effective [1]-[4].
