for Engineering Education, 2019Implementing Engineering Projects in a High School Anatomy Course (WIP)IntroductionThis Work-In-Progress is striving to introduce high school anatomy students to engineering andinfluence their perception on why engineering is important in the medical field. Students thathope to enter the medical field need opportunities to work on engaging problems that will helpthem develop creative and critical thinking skills that they can use in their future careers [1], and“thinking like an engineer” can help students develop those skills. The Science and EngineeringPractices set by the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) propose that students needopportunities to 1) develop and use models, 2) plan and carry out

Prior work has utilized metrics such as High School GPAand SAT math scores to understand graduation rates (e.g., [7], [8]). We move away from usingthese metrics of success for three reasons: 1) first-generation college students tend to have morediverse pathways than continuing-generation college students, that is, a high percentage may havepassed through community college before transferring to a four-year institution [9], [10]; 2) wesought to capture students beliefs about their abilities to succeed

Studies have shown that a strong predictorof students enrolling in engineering college majors and pursuing an engineering career is studentinterest in engineering at the K-12 level [2, 3]. In addition, it has been shown that a critical timewhere student interest, identity, and career choices begin to solidify is during middle schoolyears [4, 5] and hence should be the population on which studies should focus.

This study assesses the effectiveness of introducing unique shortwriting assignments into the dynamic systems laboratory course which traditionally involved fulllaboratory reports as deliverables. The hypothesis of this work is that the shortened writingassignments will force students to think carefully about their words and effectively improve theirlearning within the course. Specifically, a short report, written abstract, technical email,graphical abstract, and oral presentation were considered within the dynamic systems laboratorycourse as an alternative to traditional laboratory reports.

Engineers face challenges which can result in both failure andtriumph. Studying the source of an individual’s motivation in conjunction with how theyperceive themselves as an engineer may provide long-term insight into ways in which one canpositively enhance the other. Previous work suggests that establishing a strong sense of identityin the workplace can result in greater career motivation [1]. We hypothesize that a stronger senseof engineering identity correlates with stronger academic motivation, and that ultimately onemay be used to measure the other with acceptable validity and reliability.
