She also encourages students with disabilities (or as one calls it ”special abilities”) to pursue degrees in STEM as well as break barriers for women in engineering to create a broad spectrum of opportunities and meet the 21st century STEM demands. Although having a passion of helping beyond students learning, Carolina also had advocated and helped students who major in Mechanical Engineering as an exemplary Teachers Assistant in the Mechanical Engineering department laboratory ”Lockheed Martin” to have a reflection of a real-world engineering

“real engineering” project. Figure 1 Student Feedback on Hands-On Learning ActivitiesA few representative student comments from the anonymous end-of-course survey explain whatit was about the hand-on activities that made them valuable to students. From these commentsand several similar ones it shows clearly what the research has told us for years, students want tosee a real world (physical) connection to what they are doing in the classroom and what theyexpect to be doing once they graduate [4, 5]. Sample student responses that reflect this includedthe following from the course survey: ● I think the part that made the activities most beneficial was the fact that they reinforced many of the concepts that we had learned

As for the indirect measure demonstrated by the student survey response, it did not meet the target (69%).The indirect measure reflected the concerns that were received from students regarding the lack of training they received in estimating software. Through their internship experience, they realized most construction firms utilize construction software in their daily operations. The use of hand calculation, which is the main method of estimating in class is hardly used in the industry. Accordingly, faculty made effort to acquire estimating software such as Bluebeam

The procedure outlined byNetemeyer [2] was the basis for several other established instruments, and served as a drivinginfluence for this project.Netemeyer suggests a linear model of instrument development motivated with empiricalevidence. The critical first step, is to clearly define the traits or abilities being measured.Accurate definitions are necessary as they will inform item creation and the overall character ofthe instrument.

This is to allow for echoes being weakerfrom distant objects. The motion detector is capable of measuring objects as close as 0.15 m andas far away as 6 m.

Most projects areinterdisciplinary in nature, requiring various combinations of students from our computer,electrical, mechanical and manufacturing degree programs (typically teams of 5-6students), to develop products that incorporate an assorted range of mechanical,electrical

When it comes to graduate school only afraction of these undergraduates is pursuing graduate schoolleading to fewer female students in graduate school are researchingin computer science. This phenomenon is reflected in othercomputer science related fields such as computer engineering aswell [2]. For example only 30% of women are employed incomputer science. The ripple effect can be observed in making thesituation even worst by creating a very small pool of positivefemale role models for women in CS [3, 4, 12].

In addition to interactingwith practicing professionals, authentic experiential learning activities can promote STEMcareers. Experiential learning attempts to rectify what Kolb characterized as the “rejection” ofthe “real-world” by the educational establishment [7].
