Students addresshow well the selected project includes engineering elements, modifications to it that mightstrengthen the engineering content of the project, and potential adaptations they might make fortheir anticipated classroom setting. The final discussion ties the segment back to considerationsfor how secondary science classes can help students consider engineering as a major and howteachers of those classes can help prepare students for the first-year experience.

In Fall 2007 a section of thiscourse was taught using the traditional lecture method. In the other sections of the course,methods for improving the technological literacy of these students were developed. Four bestpractices were selected from these methods and taught to an experimental group in summer2010. The best practices are: (1) learning from three hands on and minds on labs, (2) use ofcharts and equations, (3) making students familiar with the top 20 bench mark numbers used inthe industry, and (4) acquiring knowledge about the commercial
