ofmicrofluidic technology requires the expertise in a number of STEM disciplines includingchemical, biomedical, electrical, or mechanical engineering in addition to chemistry, biology,and physics. Many research teams that develop these devices include one or more experts inthese fields. This interdisciplinary nature provides a unique outreach opportunity for K-12students as the students can see applications and learn about core topics in a number ofdisciplines. Moreover, in the state of Louisiana, chemical engineering is largely associated withthe petrochemical industry, thus most K-12 students believe that the only thing that an engineeror chemist can do is to work in the oil & gas industry.Due to all of these factors, we set out to develop two of

Only 35.7% reported feelingthey had adequate high school preparation in chemistry while 68.4% said they had adequate highschool preparation in math. These results are consistent with the responses of students to similarquestions.

The lectures are delivered with a sink-or-swim perspective and marginal students are notprovided with necessary support mechanisms such as tutoring, mentoring, or counseling. It is asystem where students with good study and time management skills thrive, the students who lackthose skills struggle. As a result of this culture, most students have a relaxed attitude towardslectures and class attendance in between mid-term exams and try to get good grades by studyinghard few days before the tests. The exams are typically challenging and try to gauge students’intelligence by requiring them to apply their knowledge of the material

established nearly a century ago, standards were primarily developed to support manufacturing and mechanical processes. In the present day, standards offer benefits to all segments of business and industry, government and consumers. They simplify product development, reduce unnecessary duplication, lower costs, increase productivity, promote safety, and permit interchangeability, compatibility, and interoperability. They help to advance scientific discovery, and keep people safe by minimizing injuries and protecting key environmental resources. A standard is "a recognized unit of comparison by which the correctness of others can be determined." Another definition is "a set of characteristics or
