Identify a problem they want to solve and write it on the body. b. Name two of their intersts that will help them solve the problem. They should write one interest on each arm. c. Decide how they will think like an engineer and write it on the head. Note: These steps and example responses students could record are on the Student Guide.7.

their first year instead of transferring in theirsecond year or later. The success mentioned here is measured as receiving a grade of A or B or Cin a mathematics course in the semester the research was conducted. On the other hand, it isdesirable for a community college to have a student transfer to a four-year institution only afterreceiving an associate degree, and this normally happens if the student spends two years in thecommunity college. A transfer student from a community college without an associate degreefrom that community college does not bring much credit or recognition for the efforts made bythat community college. As a result, the community colleges are reluctant to let their studentsmove to a four-year college only after one
