campus, we have createda career-forward laboratory curriculum. This curriculum involves student teams completingDesign Challenges, which translate chemistry concepts such as specific heat capacity, solubility,and reaction kinetics into situated problems that are unique to the practice of professionalengineers. In addition to contextualizing science and engineering as real world applications, ourapproach forecasts the professional practice of various types of engineering careers. Thisapproach allows first- and second-year students to experience the work of a professionalengineer in a developmentally appropriate form as a means of learning the domain of chemistry.Special consideration has also been given to designing for populations sensitive to

Promoting quality STEM Education in the time of Social Distancing (Other)AbstractThe pandemic produced by COVID-19 has forced a radical change in the strategies andmethodologies used to share and transmit knowledge. With the closure of the Schools /Universities, the educational process has been radically transformed from one day to the next.STEM education is based on collaborative work, inquiry, experimentation, problem-solving, andproject generation. This type of education encounters many obstacles in the present situation:students do not have access to laboratories, materials, and other essential supplies to implementan educational process of quality.The Institution has developed alternative ways to promote quality STEM education for

The first rocket designs date back to the year 1232 in early China. During that time, the Chinese wereusing rockets to prevent the advancement of Mongolian troops during the Battle of Kai-Keng (Benson, 2014). The nextdocumented milestone in rocketry came in 1926, when physics professor Robert Goddard launched the first-ever liquidpropellant rocket in Worcester, Massachusetts (Neufeld, 2016).
