Pre-College Engineering Education

-College Students: A Literature Review (Other)AbstractIn response to increasing demands for engineers, engineering has become a more prominentfeature of K-12 education. Additionally, engineering and engineering related topics have becomepart of many state’s standards, further encouraging this growth. Over the last two decades,programs such as Project Lead the Way, Engineering is Elementary, and others have allowedmany K-12 schools to incorporate engineering into their offerings. At the same time, manyuniversities, corporations and other youth organizations have offered opportunities for studentsto learn about engineering outside of the classroom in informal settings. These programs includecamps, after school programs, mentoring programs and other

For this study, we included anotherlayer in this cycle, a research experience for the student participants.

For thisreason, the authors used the “unblinded” mode, which may have impacted the decisions ofreviewers. In addition, Rayyan tended to get overwhelmed if more than one person in a reviewwas making changes simultaneously, and when using labels, it will only let the user who added alabel remove it later.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that occupations in information technology andComputer Science will grow 13 percent from 2016 to 2026 [1]. Regardless, most K-12 schools in theUS and other countries do not currently offer Computer Science courses, so state legislatures haveturned their attention to incorporating these programming skills in K-12 curricula. For example, inthe Wyoming Legislature’s 2018 Budget Session, Senate File 29 was passed, adding Computer Sci-ence and computational thinking to the state educational program [2].

In two sections, students attended a traditional class format(51 students) while another section (15 students) implemented the Peer Instructionmethodology. The research question driving this project was whether Peer Instructionwould produce significantly higher learning gains than the traditional blackboard and chalkapproach.

The other thoughtexperiments that Mermin subsequently developed are more appropriate for an advancedaudience; the devices he describes do not require perfectly correlated particles. The concept ofentanglement is fundamental to quantum mechanics and was first introduced by Schrödinger in1935. However, as Schroeder [9] points out, the word has been virtually absent from publicationuntil the 1980’s. Various aspects of quantum computation are revisited throughout the course asMATLAB projects. These projects escalate in complexity and are used to reinforce the value
