Routine problemscan be seen as analogous to a layup and complex real-world problems analogous to a scrimmage.In a previous study one student highlighted this difference when he asked, “you mean you wantme to solve this like a real problem in the lab or something, not like homework or a problem onan exam.” Our students have learned how to “play school” well, but we need to make schoolmore applicable to the careers we are preparing them to enter. Students need more practicesolving complex real-world problems. It seems unnecessary to make students wait to start thispractice only after they have mastered basic math and science concepts.

engagement in engineering design. Onceteachers can notice disciplinary aspects of students’ engineering design, they can actively workto promote these in class. This will give elementary students experience with the open-endedproblems of the engineering profession and the actual strategies that engineers use to solve theseproblems. Students gain an appreciation for engineering as rigorous, informed problem solving,rather than simply arts and crafts or the application of mathematics and science. Framingengineering this way may interest more students in engineering as a future career, particularlythose who are interested in problem solving but do not believe they are good at mathematics andscience.

Such growth may be difficult for some, and the challengesto individual development may be hindered by personal, career, family, and psychological issues,as well as a dysfunctional relationship with time or technology.2 Some psychologists, likeMaslow3 and Rogers,4 as well as engineers Adams5 and Petroski,6 suggest that barriers to growthare related to a variety of personal limitations or insecurities. Bigda-Peyton7 suggests that“humans have inherent [psychological] tendencies to destroy and use up” and that “harmfuloverconsumption occurs when psychic structures dominated by destructive instincts succeed inoverpowering life-sustaining impulses” (p. 264).

Also, if they perform well in an Honors contract, the mentor could write a strong recommendation letter, more substantial than the one from a regular instructor of a course, to help them advance in their careers. - Most faculty members (89%) think that the students will gain more self-confidence after they finish their Honors contracts, but very few students (only 30%) feel this way. This is alarming. To carry out an Honors contract, the students will be required to go beyond the regular scope of the course, but the mentors have detailed instructions and often arrange weekly meeting with the Honors contracts students to help them along the way.

Although TAs are typically not responsible fordefining the course goals (this is normally the instructor’s responsibility), an important aspectemphasized in the “SAIL TA Training” was to ask the TAs to 1) reflect on why it is important toknow the goals of the course, 2) articulate what these goals are, and 3) understand why/how theinstructor plans to use active learning methods to achieve these goals. This step ensures thatinstructors and TAs communicate the same goals and expectations to the students.To model these

Thus, our ultimate goal is to utilize the DBR process to developtheories that can be translated into classroom practices to enhance students’ understanding ofscience, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) subjects while simultaneously inspiringthem to pursue STEM careers. We employ DBR constructs, in the context of a robotics-basedinstructional framework, to support both student and teacher learning in several ways. The use ofrobotics serves to help stimulate an interest in STEM learning for students. In addition, roboticscan help break the silos of the underlying disciplines of STEM to help realize the vision ofintegrating these disciplines. Such

The strategy is puttingmore bodies into the beginning of the STEM education pipeline so more come out the other end.In the case of educational pluralism, the goal is more about economic (and career) opportunity“for all,” and inclusiveness and diversity as desirable social and educational foundations in theirown right. These two diversification logics often fold together in practice—and are oftenconflated by STEM education reform advocates—confusing the conceptual foundations formany STEM inclusiveness initiatives.
