The fifth principle is to ensure allscience and mathematics concepts, and technology tools employed are necessary forstudents’ successful completion of the STEM-design projects. With these principles inmind, the next step is to examine classroom enactments of the curriculum, focusing onthe extent to which students apply mathematics and science concepts to their designwork and the challenges and affordances for doing so (Berland, 2013).Effective Instructional Methodologies Contemporary engineering education should emphasize the design process,challenge-based learning, and other engineering habits of mind (Berland, Martin, Ko, etal., 2013).

Development Program) in the early 1980's, the RESP curriculum aims for the mostdifficult parts of first-year calculus, chemistry, and physics. In other words, RESP is notremedial.Put another way, RESP’s guiding philosophy is to give students the chance to have a badsemester, if one is coming, without impacting their academic record and with ample support todevelop new skills for student’s new collegiate setting. Students do not receive course credit, toremove the threat of permanently codifying poor performance on a student’s transcript. Thisdiffers from models that offer course credit, which carries the risk of permanent academicconsequences. During the summer, students build resilience as well as technical skills and entertheir fall semester aware

factor that has remained constant over    this period of time is students communicating their impression and belief that STEM majors are“hard”. Parents and society express the same impression.A recent New York Times article attributes some of this hardness to tough introductory math andscience classes. The article included the following quote from a student (with 800 Math SATand reading and writing scores in the 700’s) who switched from mechanical engineering topsychology during fall of their sophomore year: “I was trying to memorize equations, and engineering’s all about the application, which they really didn’t teach too well,” he says. “It was just like, Do these practice problems, then you’re on your own”.5Seymour and
