suggest that STEM teachers are often underprepared for these demands,since they do not have content knowledge or expertise in teaching STEM topics [6]. Evidencesuggests that teaching engineering concepts using real-world examples significantly increasesstudent success rates [7-9]. This project addresses these issues by involving teachers in authenticindustrial research projects, helping them build advanced skills in the specific area of simulationand visualization research, and helping them to develop lesson plans and content to relate theresearch experience back to their students during the academic school year [10].The Center for Innovation through Visualization and Simulation (CIVS) at Purdue UniversityNorthwest was established in 2009 and is

challenges discussed in theprevious section.FlexibilityAs previously discussed, many workers value the ability to work remotely. Related to that ismore flexibility for working hours. The desire for increased flexibility also extends to training.Gaul (2021) wrote about the findings from a Prudential Financial survey, “Nearly 80 percent ofemployees said having a flexible schedule would be somewhat or very helpful to their learningand development. They also called out employer-offered training, on-demand courses, assistancepaying for external classes, limited meetings, and mentorship programs” [30]. For manycompanies, much of their training is face-to-face during normal working hours. This needs tochange to meet the needs of employees working remotely
Incorporating Math and Design in High School Physics Fengfeng Zhou University of CincinnatiIntroductionGlobal competition is intense not only in business, but also in education. Although the mostrecent report (2003) from the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS)1reported progress for U.S. 8th-graders in their math and science performance, the newest report(2003) from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA)2 showed that 15-year-oldU.S. students rank near the bottom of industrialized countries in math skills. To promoteinquiry-based learning of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) skills in K

Exams for this course since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic were transitionedcompletely to digital exams via the Canvas learning management system. During the pandemicthese exams were proctored via Zoom. When students eventually returned to the classroom,these exams were proctored in-person in a Canvas exam session. This option offeredconvenience in grading and enabled simple and irrefutable methods of detecting academicmisconduct

Certainly students in engineering programs arean especially important sector for whom a relevant, applications andcomputationally focused mathematical education is desirable.The MaC II workshop picked up where the first workshop left off in manyrespects. The report from MaC I1 is available online at www.siam.org/reports/modeling_12.pdf. Themajor recommendations from the first workshop can be categorized as fitting four different categories: • Expand modeling in K-12 • Develop a high school one semester, or one year modeling course (with stratified content) 1 School of Arts & Sciences, Clarkson University

The issues aroundthese skills include what to teach, how to teach them, and how to assess students’ abilities[2, 3]. As part of a curriculum reform project that is a component of a larger department changeeffort, three required classes of the third year curriculum of an Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE) program at Colorado State University have added a knowledge integrationcomponent that occurs approximately every five weeks.

. Not surprisingly, the computer science teachers made the most directconnections between their RET experience and their curriculum in AP Computer Sciencecourses.From analysis of the teachers’ final seminar presentations, we saw that the teachers came tounderstand that computational thinking does not necessarily involve computers but does use aknowledge of methodical human thinking. Teachers shared examples of computational thinkingthat they were going to add to their curriculum, based on what they had learned during the RETexperience. Examples of new lessons included unplugged algorithmic thinking in the form ofdirections to make a sandwich; bin packing exercises; relating the engineering process and itsiterative nature; using Google
