engineering comprise one thread of currentresearch. Originating from Mead and Metraux’s 1957 study of high school student images ofscientists [10], more recent research has focused on comparing K-12 student drawings ofscientists and engineers [11-14].The Fralick et al.’s 2009 [13] study is of interest to our work in progress because it developed arobust taxonomy for comparing drawings of scientists (DAS) and engineers (DAE) by middleschool level students (see Appendix A). They developed three general categories: species;objects; and inferred actions. We employ the Fralick et al. taxonomy to identify intersectionsbetween the descriptions of engineers and engineering we collected from our citizen scienceparticipants and images produce by K-12

elastic modulus. On a morefundamental level the elastic modulus is proportional to the change in free energy G ofdeformation. Hence, Young’s Modulus ~ (dG/dl) = (dH/dl) – T(dS/dl)where l denotes the length of the sample, T is the (absolute) temperature and H and S refer toenthalpy and entropy, respectively [5]. If Young’s modulus is determined by the cohesive energydensity of materials then the effect of entropic forces can be neglected and thus Young’s Modulus~ (dH/dl). Metals and ceramics are thus also called ‘enthalpy elastic’.Rubbers, defined as weakly crosslinked amorphous polymers above the glass transitiontemperature, defy this trend. Rubbers are an important class of polymer materials that are widelyused for their

Teaching ‘Nondestructive Evaluation of Flaws’, an all-around course in NDE, using thetraditional lecture-based methods is challenging because: (1) each NDE method is based on adifferent physical principle; it is difficult for the students to grasp all the different principles andmethods one after the other within the short 15-week timeframe of one semester, and (2) theclass is highly heterogenous; the students have very different backgrounds
