engineeringdesign. Beginning in the mid 1990s, curriculum designers began producing curriculum units forall grade levels at an ever-increasing rate, despite the fact that no common agreement exists onwhat should be included in the engineering design process used in K-12 education. Furthermore,very little pre-service and in-service professional development exists that will prepare teachers toteach a design process that is fundamentally different from the science teaching process found intypical public schools. This study provides a foundation upon which future studies aboutcurriculum and professional development for engineering education can be based – a glimpseinto what teachers think happens in engineering design compared to articulated best practices

Through skill development in the areas of collaboration and leadership, and the application of these capacities to meaningful roles in community, youth can play a fundamental role in addressing the social issues that are destined to impact their lives and those of future generations.9Third, InnoWorks is structured on the belief that college-age mentors are ideal role modelsbecause of their similarities in age and experience with the middle-school students.

By providing an engaging and educational summer bridge program thatcombines hands-on, project-based learning with development of mathematical fundamentals, pre-college students have a jump start on gauging their interest and inclination towards pursuing oneof the many STEM pathways leading to in-demand degrees and employment locally. Uponcompletion of the STEM Core, these students will be primed for postsecondary and vocationalsuccess—on a pathway to continue their associate degree or beyond.Much in the same way that community colleges work in partnership with local employers to

Both undergraduate and graduate fellows believe that they are moreprepared for their careers because of their experience with RAMP-UP. We believe that much ofthese results are due not only to RAMP-UP’s goals, which the program shares with other GK-12programs, but to a fundamentally different structure which affects the impact on all involvedstudents.RAMP-UP: Structure and OperationRAMP-UP, a partnership between North Carolina State University Colleges of Engineering andEducation, Shaw University (a local HBCU), and the Wake County Public School System, is afive-year program funded by grants from the National Science and GE Foundations.

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING COMMITMENT TO TEAM SKILLSix The College of Engineering is committed to implementing the mission of the University tocreate “leaders and citizens who will challenge the present and enrich the future.” Team skills areintegral to leadership and there is a strong movement in the College to include the ability to work ingroups or teams as a fundamental skill for all engineers. As proposed by Curriculum 2000,“leadership and team building/working skills and experiences” is one of the knowledge sets(“threads”) that will characterize the Michigan engineering B.S. and B.S.E

This self-confidence is perhapslogical when one considers the pathway of these students: they were not admitted into the CoEbut chose to attend CU, confident that they would gain admittance through the ES program ifthey opted to do so; after a semester of college they continued to persist in their goals andenrolled in the FYD course.All students were similarly highly confident in their public speaking, writing (technical reports),and project management skills (avg 3.4, 3.1, and 3.1, respectively, across all groups) and lessconfident in their programming ability (Arduino, MATLAB, Python, etc.; avg. 2.3).

These six dimensions provide a lens through which informationgenerated by this study can be viewed.For engineering education to remain relevant to the needs of industry, it seems logical to looktowards state-of-the-art leadership tools being deployed by General Electric, one of the world’slargest engineering companies. In addition, developing instructional activities for futureengineers should also be guided by fundamental understandings of leadership and engineering-leadership development.The theoretical framework for the instructional activities described in this study is the socialchange model

Seeing changes inaltruism may not be overwhelmingly surprising due to the inherently emotional nature of thecontent. Both altruism and ideation are oriented towards value creation [32], suggesting that apossible outcome of this intervention is that students actively want to pursue positive socialchange by evaluating the perspectives of others and challenging current solutions [1], [11], [16],[44]. This hopefully pushes students to ask questions and consider the viewpoints of others whileengaging in their own work, therefore potentially building a more humanistic approach toengineering.Research

bonds with the individualsin the social groups with whom they live or work, and it is a fundamental human need thatpositively affects mental health and well-being (Baumeister & Leary, 1995). A lack of sense ofbelonging can have suboptimal outcomes such as poor psychological wellbeing and performancedeficits (Walton & Cohen, 2007). Individuals who are already marginalized tend to beparticularly sensitive to belonging, because connection to a group can provide importantresources such as psychosocial and instrumental support (Walton & Cohen, 2011). Greater senseof belonging predicts both entry into and retention in academic and professional fields(Dasgupta, 2011; Wilson, Spring, & Hansen, 2008). Research has shown that sense of

Developmental education emphasizes the need for students to becomeindependent and have self-regulation in their learning, rather than focusing on a deficitperspective of education, as is the case with remediation. As an illustration of this type ofpedagogical practice, one CC provides a free non-credit course for those students whoseacademic skills require remediation. In a different example of this type, one CC pursues an
