practices[20]. Despite growing evidence of the importance of introducing elementary students toengineering concepts and activities, several systemic barriers persist in truly integrating andsustaining these concepts into curriculum and practices in schools. Few students express interestor plans for STEM and engineering careers or experiences, as they’re often not exposed to thediscipline or its applicability during their K-12 education. This is likely due in large part to thelimited or nonexistent training or preparation that K-12 teachers receive in integratingengineering principles into their existing curriculum or content areas [21]. Epstein and Miller[29] corroborated these findings, adding evidence that educators understand the importance

For this systemanalysis, it is assumed the fin and channel geometries, except for the length of the channels, andflow rates have been optimized. Geometry and flow optimization is beyond the scope of thispaper but is planned for a future work. With these geometries and flows, the convective heattransfer coefficients, conductivity of the channels and the fin efficiency are fixed. This in turnfixes the overall heat transfer coefficient.

Self-reported or subjective task value has also been linked to future course plans andactual choices of courses as well as achievement10-12. Task value has multiple componentsincluding the intrinsic, attainment, and utility value of a task as well as the perceived cost ofpursuing that task7. Intrinsic value refers to the inherent enjoyment that engineering is expectedto provide the student over the course of his or her program. Attainment, on the other hand,speaks to the student’s perception of how important the engineering course of study is to his orher future career and the

good work ethic can achieve success in a STEM-related field. To helpalleviate these preconceived, negative stigmas about engineering, the STEM teachers plan tospend more time informally educating their school staff about the field of engineering, that it isfor any student who is willing to work hard and dedicate themselves to it; it is not just for “reallysmart” people who are good at math.Limitations of Study/Further QuestionsThe findings of these analyses should be placed within the limitations of this study.

Future work will involve exploring whether students’ problem solving performance willbe improved by enhancing their spatial thinking abilities or understanding of key concepts inmechanics. In addition, we are planning on extending this research to other areas of application,such as engineering design or other disciplines and recruiting participants at various levels ofacademia (i.e. graduate students, instructors, and faculty members) to examine the impact ofexperience/expertise.

students attempted more credit hours than non-engineering students in general, the former were more sensitive to scholarship credit-hourrequirements. In Georgia, engineering students became more likely to attempt fewer credits inthe first year, while total students were unaffected by the scholarship.While the number of credit hours represents a convenient continuous variable to measure thecurricular progression of students, it is relevant to discuss student progression with respect to the“full load” threshold, since this threshold determines what fraction of students can graduate ontime or early and which are falling behind the stated curriculum plan. Scholarship effects onfirst-year full load attempted by residents similarly varied based on

The famous El Cortez Hotel in San Diego provides an excellent exampleof the advantage of listening intently to employees at every level. The hotel management decidedto install an additional elevator to better serve their guests. Engineers drew up plans cuttingholes through each floor of the hotel. A janitor, who was concerned with this, made the commentthat this would make a great deal of mess. The janitor was told not to worry because the hotelwould be closed to guests during the construction. The janitor suggested, "You could build theelevator on the outside of the hotel."
