increase students’ interest in STEM and expand theiraccess to opportunities to experience integrated STEM activities. Our work focused on middleschool students as research shows that interest in STEM decreases through middle school [1].The planned intervention is based on existing theory and research on motivation, as well as theemerging body of literature on integrated STEM instruction. Research shows that relevance isessential to student engagement in science and mathematics [2]. Research also indicates thatthere is a link between students’ interest and experiences in school and their future educationalcareer choices [3,4] . Therefore, engaging students in engineering activities where they solve realworld problems motivates them to learn science

In ongoing work, we plan to study (a) the quality of interactivity of students conductinghomework this way, (b) the possible benefits to students who enter the course with lower priorknowledge, and (c) conduct repeated measures using the same homework assignments but with anew cohort of students. As a part of this study, we have asked students to record themselves doing the homeworktogether so that we can assess the quality of their interactions.

Whereas, this course can dedicate only two weeks to electrostatics content. It is alsoworth noting the relative preparation of students in this course versus the CU students. Thedifferences in the relative preparation of the two groups is illuminated in Table 2, with CUpretest scores of 30.9% compared to this cohort’s 16.8%.

the average rating in the traditional classroom. The main reason for that is asfollows: Although the conventional teaching module is adopted in the first stage (the first sixweeks), the teaching contents are smaller but with a more comprehensive teaching syllabusthan the flipped one. Therefore, students have better commanding and application of theknowledge taught in the traditional classroom. In the flipped module, teaching chapters cover70% contents of the teaching plan. Because of the flipped module, the video content uses thefragmented form under dispersed teaching, leading to students' relatively weaker mastering ofknowledge than in the first stage, which explains the second phase of the test scores showinga slightly decreasing trend

To accomplish this, we will continue to track a single cohort ofstudents from material balances through the remainder of their career in the chemicalengineering program. We will keep track of student retention, subsequent courses and respectiveinstructors, as well as performance, attitudes, and external experiences such as research orinternships. We also are in the planning stages of a more homogeneous course model for materialbalances. The revised course model will focus on exposing students to problems that engage thefull spectrum of learning styles. As learning styles describe the cognitive processes involved ininformation gathering and problem solving, we believe it is important to teach

To achieve deeper understanding and learning, it was considered prudent to provide some facility which could be used to access additional internal register and/or control signal values. Unassigned output pins and seven segment decoders were setup for such additional registers and control signals as seen in Figure 9. Even though reassigning pins will decrease accessibility to standard registers, a user or a designer can observe and verify the internal working of a module for planned system improvement or expansion.Figure 8: Locations of WIMP51 register and control signal access as part of the standard viewing

This meant that aside from one scheduled meeting outside of classtimes, the students were strongly requested to meet several times over the length of the projectoutside of class times. This did not work as hoped. While some teams did meet, othersencountered difficulty finding times to meet as a full team or reported a breakdown incommunication.

Traditional methodologies use comprehensiveplanning, detailed documentation, and expansive designs for developing software. Since 2001,more recent methodologies such as agile modeling, have gained significant attention from thesoftware engineering community. Some of the characteristics of agile modeling are (a) shortdevelopment cycles, (b) incremental planning, (c) continuous feedback, (d) reliance oncommunication, and (e) evolutionary design7.
