an assumption of no available timeafter hours to continue projects independently because students will be immersed in the socialaspects of the program. Contrast this with a typical college course structure of 40-hours per weekof contact time and around 100-hours of independent working time for homework and projects,and very quickly it becomes apparent that different kinds of curriculum design are needed for thesummer activities. Figure 1 illustrates a typical outline or schedule followed during a two-week session. Outof the 90-hours available between 9:00 and 6:00 Monday-Friday, approximately 79-hours werein contact with faculty, and half of that time (34.5 hours) was spent with hands-on designprojects.

Their responses were found to be generally simplistic, forexample, engineers were commonly depicted as workers who constructed buildings or repairedcar engines, though older participants more frequently mentioned engineering design tasks. Themost common stereotypical actions youth perceive engineers to do are to design, plan, and orperform physical labor. Common images included tools, cars and computers. Consistent findingswere reported by a number of subsequent investigations using similar data collection methods(e.g. [1], [9]–[12]). Further, youth displayed signs of
