Lottero-Perdue, Ph.D., is Professor of Science and Engineering Education in the Department of Physics, Astronomy & Geosciences at Towson University. She has a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, worked briefly as a process engineer, and taught high school physics and pre-engineering. She has taught engineering and science to children in multiple formal and informal settings. As a K- 8 pre-service teacher educator, she

work will explore the role of this experience on student recruitment andretention in engineering programs, and the academic performance and career trajectories forparticipating students. Through further analysis, we hope that these pieces serve to inform howwe describe the characteristics and purposes of the outreach program and STEM, particularly asit is understood by the program instructor, to provide insight into the nature of this collaborationand STEM education as a whole.This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation (Award #1554038).References[1] D.

think I would give myself a strong six. And I think one of the reasons why I have a lot more improvement to do is - and we talked about this in the past - because of the time limit that I have with the kids. The discussion for each individual student or with each [...] group [about] bringing their funds of knowledge isn’t as big of a discussion as I would like because sometimes it’s just rushing to get from point A to point B. And I put a lot more of the load on students because there’s only one me and there’s -- let’s say we have six groups, for example.As indicated by Rosario, the number of classrooms or groups she managed, plus the curriculumlimited the time she was able to spend with each individual

She also spends less timeexplaining the EDP because participating 8th grade youth have had a lot of experience with it.She views herself more as an “observer” than a director of learning with this group; she does notfeel like she needs to ask a lot of probing questions because the youth are engaged andinvestigating on their own.
