Division of the American society for Engineering Education havedistinguished between technological literacy and engineering literacy. One approach is to distinguish betweenthe “process” of engineering and its “product” technology. While useful in engineering education at school leveland in higher education it is no wonder that the public continue to be confused about the differences betweenengineering and technology. Krupczak and his colleagues not that “the term engineering is not treatedsystematically by any of the technological literacy standards which must be to the detriment of engineering, andthose wanting to develop engineering standards.Attempts to show how engineering and technology interact inevitably lead to models that conflate the

An inventory of what everyone should know about engineering and technologywould be an expansive list. Even one of the sub-disciplines of engineering such as mechanical,electrical, or civil engineering could produce a near limitless array of facts to include.Compounding the problem is the time evolution of technology.

: using IR cameras in STEM outreach Abstract The recent introduction of affordable infrared (IR) cameras and IR imaging attachments for smartphones has provided a unique opportunity to enhance the education of K-12 students. We have acquired a number of different IR cameras and IR camera attachments and discuss the utilization of these devices in both a college course and in our STEM and STEAM outreach efforts. While our outreach efforts have placed us in a classroom for just an hour or two at a time, thanks to local IEEE Chapter support, we have placed IR cameras in these classrooms for several weeks at a time.
