Innovative Educational Modules for the Next Generation of Transportation Professionals.

摘要

Basic science and mathematics competence, including awareness of engineering careers, gained in grades K-12 forms the foundation of an educated, capable, and technical future transportation workforce. This project developed a series of educational science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)-based modules for grades 6-12. These modules engage students in real-world applications of math, deductive reasoning, and problem solving. The modules can be incorporated in either the classroom or informal educational settings, such as afterschool enrichment programs.
