The demand for technicians and technologists in the aerospaceindustry in total is not available through the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (USBLS) website(www.bls.gov). The US demand for aircraft and avionics mechanics and technicians is expectedto grow 5%, with an increase in employment of 7,300 from 2019-2029 which does not includethe replacements due to retirement or other attrition [10]. The outlook for Aerospace Engineeringand Operations Technicians is expected to grow 7%, with an increase of 800 technicians between2019-2029 [11]. The outlook for Aerospace Engineers is listed as an increase of 1900 between2019-2029 [12]. These are only a fraction of the technically demanding careers for degreedtechnologists and
opportunity toincrease their understanding.Additional issues that may contribute to the average performance include low attendance andparticipation in lecture for the spring offerings, overburdened workload from lengthy homeworkassignments and application / programming projects, frequent written tests that did not clarifycommon misunderstandings, insufficient feedback on all assignments, but especially writtenassessments, and insufficient support to improve performance throughout the semester.Oral Formative AssessmentBeginning in the spring 2019 semester, a significant change was made to the Numerical Methodscourse at ASU. The biweekly written assessments were changed into biweekly oral assessments.This change was made primarily to increase student

To conduct this study, data from 2017, 2018, and 2019summer outreach camps to increase student interest in STEM were analyzed.Program DescriptionStudents and teachers from multiple school districts were invited to attend a week-long summerengineering camp in Utah in the summers of 2017, 2018, and 2019. The camps were designed toincrease student interest in STEM and are part of a 7-year grant funded by the Department ofEducation as part of the GEAR UP program. Detailed description of those camps is available inprevious work by the researchers [6]Participant demographics for student participants is shown in

maximum grade gradeResultsThe programming component of the course was setup for a weekly quiz, two mid-term exams, and afinal exam during the Spring 2020 semester. Programming assignments using robotics kits wereincorporated into one week’s schedule but was not implemented due to Covid-19. Students’performance for this semester is compared to historic performance in the figure below. As can be seenfrom the figure, the performance of students in this course far exceeded historic performance. In 2019-2020 year, due to Covid-19, some grades were listed as P as per MSU policy. These grades are countedtowards C, the least grade for the course needed to progress in the program. Other grades during thisyear included 4 NC (no

This number of participants is considered sufficient to reach an acceptable levelof trustworthiness.ResultsThe interviews of faculty are ongoing during spring 2019. By March 2019, four interviewshad been conducted at the first university. By the time of the ASEE conference in June, allinterviews and a first round of analysis will have been completed, enabling presentation ofpreliminary results.The initial analyses made so far have identified the disciplines themselves as importantfactors in the variations noted. The more science-dominated engineering disciplines, includingbiotechnology and in one case energy, seem to expect less future change, whereas engineeringdisciplines such as mechanical and

On average the mean of team scores was 18±3%higher than the mean of individual scores, resulting in a learning gain of 36±8%.Student perceptions of the testing environmentThe Intervention group spanned three different semester offerings of the course in 2017 (n=64students), 2018 (n=65), and 2019 (n=70). Figure 1 shows responses to three Likert-stylequestions about student perceptions of the collaborative testing activity broken down by semesterand summed for the total Intervention group. 78% of students agreed or strongly agreed thatdiscussion of the test with a team helped improve their scores, whereas 5% disagreed or stronglydisagreed, and 18% were not sure. 74% of students agreed or strongly agreed

Evolution of Students’ Identity as Researchers and Engineers. In the quantitative survey data, it was noted that the participants tended to identify more as researchers by the conclusion of the program; however, their identification with the career and aspirations of an engineer changed little. Overall, the students, understandably, appeared to possess a dual identity. Table 1 lists an example of this change from the exit focus group for the 2019 iteration of the program.
