Tomake programming less abstract and to establish a real-life connection, we use MATLAB forinterfacing with a data acquisition device called LabJack. Students use MATLAB’s integrateddevelopment environment to write scripts that control the LabJack.This environment has enabled students to participate in some interesting hands-on projects thatcombine problem-solving, programming, and interfacing. Early on, student participation in theECE 102 course consisted of attending lectures, three laboratory exercises related to LabJack andMATLAB interfacing, and participation in

. I think so. I have an underlying—I don't know what to call it - anxiety that— it is a lot easier to involve students in science if you bring them into a laboratory, and they actually make experiments and things of this kind. I'm essentially a mathematician when everything is said and done, and so it's hard—I feel that pulling people into the math and showing how that relates to science is not as easily done and so I think that he, somehow, bought into it. And in fact, he may even continue doing what he was doing. So, it seemed to me that the whole thing was successful even in cultivating a certain interest that it's often harder to cultivate.”When asked if the program had impacted their own

Enjoymentand general opinion of the camp were also high (>90%). Creativity was lower, most likely due tothe intro lecture and other laboratory activities that did not allow for much choice from thecamper due to the nature of the experiment. Overall, these results show that the comprehensionof materials science, over all activities, was achieved via our transfer of learning methods.Looking at the individual module responses gives a more detailed look into how well the girlscomprehended each module, as well as how much they enjoyed it.Figure 8 shows the Likert responses for the Design project module.

TechniquesTwo common methods used to explore neural processes of decision-making and problem solvingunder laboratory conditions are electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magneticresonance imaging (fMRI). EEG involves a head cover (e.g., cap or net) which places electrodeson the scalp and measures electrical changes in the brain. Temporal resolution is very good(detects quick changes) though spatial resolution (where the change occurs) is poor becausesignals often interfere with one another and make it difficult to pinpoint specific brain regionsinvolved in the processing. EEG methods are mainly of value when stimuli are simple and thetask involves basic processes (e.g., target detection) triggered by task stimuli (Eysenck & Keane,2015

However, thefield of engineering has not yet established a clear idea of what “disciplinary engagement”means.Engineering at its core is about creating solutions to problems using mathematics, science, andcreativity through a design process. The engineering curriculum reflects this by containingdifferent types of courses that teach the mathematical models of natural phenomena (i.e.engineering science courses, or technical core courses), laboratory and experimental techniquesand processes (i.e. lab courses), and fundamentals of engineering design (i.e. design courses).These courses all ask students to engage disciplinarily in different ways, all in support of theoverall practice of engineering to create new solutions.
