ROKETsupported 50 teachers from Native American schools in a 6-week summer research experienceover a 7 year period in labs in the College of Optical Sciences and the College of Science.Applying theories of American Indian identity development to teacher development, the goal ofthis program was to increase cultural awareness in Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM) classroom curriculum and build professional mentoring relationships totransform Native American classrooms and pique the interests of Native American youth towardSTEM

latest information for a rapidly changing domestic industry. Engineering 2020 concerns designing an engineering curriculum that grows to meet or exceed current and future demands. This is based on vision, values, variability, knowledge and awareness of the inherent worth of people [1]. In this work, we describe a state-of-the-art, multidisciplinary undergraduate course in electronic manufacturing that satisfy elements from engineering 2020 objectives. The course integrates knowledge from different technologies with application in life sciences. The course incorporates four technology processes: ASIC, PCB, FPGA, and MEMS into engineering application. Indiana Life Sciences Inc. located at Indianapolis, Indiana, will be hosting the manufacturing

Collaborative learning, cooperative learning andother forms of active learning are being used in classrooms as ways to promote teamwork amongstudents and enhance their learning 7,8. Studies on cooperative and collaborative learning, as well as on the use of groups inclassroom prove that trying to incorporate teams into the classroom is a highly complex task 9.Difficulties with implementing teams have led researchers and practitioners to look forcharacteristics that make the difference between an effective and an ineffective team.

Scout identified as “nonbinary, intersex, and bisexual” [38]. Eachof these identities are impacted by marginalization and exist in the liminal spaces presented inthis paper.

Upper level electives in the computer scienceprogram are structured such that they are open to both computer science students and tocomputer engineering students. This means that in general, the only prerequisite for thesecourses is the data structures course. In terms of which courses are offered, for example, itmeans that an advanced version of object oriented programming will probably not be offeredunless there is great enrollment in computer science since there is
