The research team sent at-home engineering kits that contained an instructioncard, materials, and tools for engineering challenge activities in five engineering disciplines.Caregivers were instructed to video-record their engineering activities, creating approximately100 hours of video data. Then, caregivers participated in in-depth online interviews about theirpedagogical expectations in educating children, specifically in STEM education.

It also includes a mechanism to take voltage measurements in the circuit. Bylogging all mouse and key clicks in the browser window as well as user replies, we observe bothstudents’ reasoning and actions as they work to understand the error in the circuit. Thus, our newtroubleshooting tool allows us to capture rich data for large number of students quickly andeffectively (and now remotely).Using our new tool, we were able to better understand how students approach troubleshootingcircuits.

Furthermore, AR applications increased dramatically because themobile device is simpler and more portable (Martin et al., 2011). Compared to othertechnologies, AR has several advantages.

It means, theknowledge of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics should transcend thehypothetical realm to articulate themselves as engines for defeating this problem. And for that,design is one possible transversal component in STEM areas through which the creation ofsolutions can materialize this idea according to the needs of each population. However, it seemsthat these professionals are not prepared for this task. How can education help with this?

It requires education and training inthe “engineering of systems” – i.e., Systems Engineering. Where voids exist in this knowledge,the organization’s ability to “engineer systems” is typically characterized as ad hoc, chaotic, anddysfunctional rather than efficient and effective.In response to these operational needs, this paper explores the ad hoc, chaotic, and dysfunctionalnature of Systems

I was also told to expect a relatively high DFW rate (percent of students earning D andF grades or withdrawing from the course) and a relatively low teaching evaluation.The first year went as expected.
