STEMcareers [16, 17, 18]. Program teachers offer varied, hands-on projects in their engineeringclassrooms that are practical, but also community minded, artful, or even musical. This approachto an introduction to engineering course is theorized to attract the creative problem solver neededto succeed in the field of engineering. See Appendix A for the ENGR 102 HS teachingobjectives and learning outcomes. While the focus of this paper is gender and student self-efficacy, much more information about ENGR 102 HS in comparison to other dual creditprograms, the quality of instruction and the logistics of the EPICS High community serviceprogram and the GC DELI online units can be found in previous work by the authors [1, 15, 19,20, 21].During a given

pedagogical goals in mind. One goal is to provide an opportunity for students todeepen their learning of science and engineering concepts. Another goal is to experienceactivities that mimic those of an engineer. In both cases, ambassadors seem to be refining theircapacity to convey technical content in ways that appeal to specific (non-technical) audiences,which is very much aligned with the overall goals of the ambassador program. The activity design process demonstrated the potential for this aspect of ambassadortraining to further undergraduates’ thinking as subject matter experts and communicators to non-technical audiences. Most of the ambassadors gave specific examples of how the content of theirpresentation was manifest in the hands-on

Medicine (IM) voice the needfor professional development programs to develop teachers’ knowledge and skills for integratingengineering into instruction 5. Therefore, providing professional development for in-serviceteachers has the potential to improve teachers’ engineering knowledge and increase studentinterest in engineering. Previous studies underscored the importance of teacher guidance for students inimproving students’ views of engineering and choosing STEM fields for their future career path6,7 . Bearing in mind that teachers lack knowledge about engineering and how to integrate it intotheir lessons 8,9, researchers have created professional development (PD) programs to improveteachers’ knowledge.

Society for Engineering Education, 2017 A Study on Enhancing Advanced Physics Laboratory TeachingIntroductory physics laboratory (IPL) courses are designed to educate students on general physicstopics, but they lack the experimental sophistication and experience required for their future. Onthe other hand, diverse and high-quality advanced physics lab courses must be made available toprepare students for future careers and advanced degrees. In a recent AIP report, Equipping PhysicsMajors for the STEM Workforce, the report's first aim was "Varied and high-quality lab courses."With this in mind, an Advanced Physics Laboratory (APL) course for upper division studentsshould provide the following. • Physical aspects – access to a wide
