At present very few students from these schools come to ASU forengineering. We will discuss the primary needs of such CCs as they attempt to build up their pre-engineering programs. Complete articulation agreements already exist with ASU for each CC inthe state of Arizona. This collaboration includes a visit each semester by an ASU team to eachCC. At least one of these events each year will also include high

Page 14.525.3Theoretical FrameworkThe recent national emphasis on the design, development, and implementation of K-12engineering education curricula has increased interest in assessing students’ knowledge ofengineering. Many adults and students in the US have deficient understandings of engineers andwhat engineers do1. In addition, engineering is among the least gender equitable professions witha workforce that is only 11% female2. Researchers have argued that the cause for such adiscrepancy has

Hybridization of Academic Disciplines: Another recent trend is hybridization of academic disciplines, both in academia and profession(s).

It will outline characteristics of this new design process andpresent a framework to examine the effects in a Construction Design course. Student surveysand supporting data are presented.

The three sensors (SRF 04) [3] in the front are the main source for detectingthe location of close physical obstacles. In arranging the front sensors like this, the desire was togain information not only about how far away each obstacle is, but also an approximation on thelocation of each obstacle. The first way this is accomplished is if there is an object detected onone or two of the sensors and not on the other(s). For example, if an object is detected on the left and center sensors, but not on the right, then the object is located to the

. The symbol m represents mass (in kg) and v is velocity (m/s) so the units of KE are kg*(m/sec)2 or (kg m/sec2)*m = N*m = Joule = J. How much energy is in one joule? A 100-watt lightbulb uses 3.6 x 105 J in one hour (so a joule is pretty small in the grand scale of energy), so we typically work with kJ = 1000 J. Another commonly used unit of energy is the calorie (cal), originally defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1°C but is now defined as 4.184 J (exactly) so a calorie is about
