Nine out of the ten students agreed that attending theprogram increased their interest in studying engineering in college. This outcome also fulfills agoal of the FREEDM precollege program: to attract more students into STEM fields. Nine outof the 10 students plan to go to college after graduating from high school. With this as animpetus, all of the Young Scholars have decided to work harder in school. All of the studentsfeel that energy education should be an important part of every school’s curriculum, and they allagreed that they would do more to save energy if they knew how. In

This is especially true in the area of project management where the essenceof the subject is a combination of people skills and planning skills. Both of these skills havebeen identified by ABET as essential skills for the next generation of engineers1.

societal aspects of engineering practice are the subjects of several ABET2000 outcomes. ABET 2000 criterion 3(f) states that "Engineering programs mustdemonstrate that their graduates have an understanding of professional and ethicalresponsibility." Criterion 3(h) states – "Engineering programs must demonstrate that theirgraduates have the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineeringsolutions in a global and societal context." And, Criterion 4 requires that programgraduates have design experience…that includes most of the following considerations:economic, environmental, sustainability, manufacturability, ethical, health and safety,social, and political"(Schimmel, 2000), (ABET, 1998).

It offers us another window in topics like stress and strain, and does so in a way that is interesting and very realistic.□ Any chance to relate real life engineering practices to what is being studied in the class is beneficial to everyone. In this case, helicopters fit the bill quite well.□ The theme approach is effective and should definitely be part of the class curriculum.□ Studying helicopters in our course in order to teach us about the different mechanical ele- ments is a great idea.

pervasive assumption about educating students who are deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) is thatovercoming the communication barrier between instructor and student is sufficient to effectivelyeducate these students. However, a critical challenge that DHH students face in pursuing STEMdegrees is developing problem-solving skills and by extension, understanding the interactionamong concepts or variables that are interrelated.
