The HP Scholar Award is a highly selective scholarship opportunity for students interested in CE, CS, or EE. The total value of the four-year cash scholarship, HP Scholar Productivity Package and the three paid internships may exceed $40,000 per student.
ISTE's journal this month has some great articles! Check out the piece on girls and engineering on page 24. It's a middle school partnership with IBM in Vermont. If the link doesn't work, email me and I'll send it to you.
"Lego introducing a robotics program designed to teach children as
young as age 7 how to make simple machines and write software
programs to solve problems." Teaches "critical thinking in math and the
writing, storytelling, and presenting that students are encouraged to do
as part of the program incorporate language arts skills."
The U.S. Army and Project Lead the Way are partnering to use the America's Army
PC game platform currently used as a soldier training tool to enhance science and
engineering curricula in middle and high schools across the country.
CIESE sponsors and designs interdisciplinary projects that teachers throughout the world can use to enhance their curriculum through compelling use of the Internet. We focus on projects that utilize real time data available from the Internet, and collaborative projects that utilize the Internet?s potential to reach peers and experts around the world. Below is a catalog of projects that are currently being or have been sponsored by CIESE . Each project has a brief description and links to the National Science Standards and NCTM math standards it supports.
Site of a Cambridge-based non-profit that provides a web-based programming environment and project guides for engineering and microcontroller projects for high school students.
"Great links to Great Science Resources. For students, parents, teachers, scientists, engineers and mathematicians. More than 14,000 Science Resources sorted by Category, Subcategory, and Grade Level"
These are some educational java applets written by Paul Falstad to help visualize various concepts in math, physics, and engineering. You should be able to view them with any Java-capable browser.
Bordogna explained how the National Science Foundation had been lending support to schools that were trying to adopt reforms and foster an undergraduate experience that focused on learning through inquiry and discovery. Yet Milas understood that these programs were competing with a strong institutional inertia. Engineering schools had structured themselves, largely for the convenience of faculty, around a comfortable way of teaching but not the best methods of learning. There was too much note-taking in the classroom and not enough hands-on learning. Institutions stressed research over undergraduate teaching, because that’s where the recognition and grant money come from.
