Design competitions offer one approach to increasing interest in technology andengineering. Faculty, university students, industry supporters, and community representativeshave joined together for several years to encourage student teams from a Midwestern middleschool to participate in ToyChallenge™, a relatively low-cost, “girl-friendly” design competitionorganized by SallyRideScience™.The paper discusses the motivating factors that led engineering technology faculty, universitystudents, and middle school teachers to take on responsibility for coaching

. Survey to Assess Student’s Knowledge about Shipbuilding & Repair A survey was designed to assess the impact of the simulation activities on the student’sknowledge about shipbuilding and repair. This survey contains questions about shipscomponents, ship design and physics principles like buoyancy. Student responses are aggregatedand average score is obtained on a scale of 1-10. Students are assessed using the same instrumentafter they have gone through the four simulation sessions. The difference in the score betweenthe pre and post survey provides a measure of change in the knowledge base of the students. Acopy of the survey is attached in Appendix A.V.

Before students get a chance to work on their real-world projects, which typically happen in capstone/senior projects, some of the students wouldhave made the decision to transfer out of engineering school. Based on the feedback fromindustry, even students who finished their engineering degree need more experience with real-world product development experience.To enhance the educational experience for students, TAMU made significant amount ofinvestment in seven activities.

Factors Impacting First Year Persistence in Computer Graphics Technology Abstract The retention of students is a goal that all universities strive to achieve. With more and more emphasis placed on degree completion, retaining students becomes even more important. University faculty and staff continually try to identify what possible factors affect a student’s decision to remain in their chosen field of study. Faculty in the Computer Graphics Technology (CGT) program are concerned with what factors, if any, affect the persistence of students in the CGT program. The

These additional data will allow for the moreparticipants with strong or moderate preferences to be analyzed. This would improve the findingsand help determine the role of learning style preference on the impact of experiential learningactivities. Additional statistical analyses will also attempt to better examine the interaction ofexperiential learning exercise timing and learning style.

First, the simple reality is that these students are members of the institution andfrequently interact with others. For this reason alone, the relationship-jeopardizing behaviorsthat troubled, emotionally-challenged, and difficult students engage in should give

requirements and assessment should be considered. For example, the instructor had planned on giving a total number of 10 assignments during the semester with a final exam that was only for undergraduate students. However, since both of the groups needed extra time to do a work measurement study and collect input data for their model, the instructor had to reduce the number of assignments and cancelled the final exam to accommodate the students. Since it was the first time that such projects were brought to the classroom, both the instructor and students were eager to do a satisfactorily job that would encourage the company for future collaboration and would promote community engagement through the

students take less computerscience and engineering courses in high school with more males enrolling in thesecourses than females. There are multiple reasons that STEM career pathways may be lacking in K-12education in the United States and contributing to a shortage of workforce inSTEM. Most significant is that students need a strong foundation in science and math inorder to prepare to train for STEM professions. Science and technology courses are fewand students may not have access to take courses in STEM areas contingent on theavailability of teachers and courses (US Congress Joint Economic Committee, 2012). Itis important to provide the K-12 community with ample opportunities in STEM and to beable to apply STEM in real world environments
