5. “ Engineering has been called the “invisible” or “stealth” profession. Everything around you and that you use every day has been engineered in some way yet you may not see the engineers behind the scenes or know much about engineering.” www.discoverengineering.org
6. “ You have math and science classes and both are basic to engineering. But, engineers take math and science from paper and the lab to invent, design, and build things that matter.” www.discoverengineering.org
7. “ They are team players with independent minds who ask, How can we develop a better recycling system to protect the environment, design a school that can withstand an earthquake, or create cutting-edge special effects for the movies?” www.discoverengineering.org
8. “ By dreaming up creative and practical solutions, engineers are changing the world all the time.” www.discoverengineering.org

16. Reflections: In my higher level math classes, I always carved a few days out of the pacing guide to introduce my students to the career of engineering. I typically brought in a guest speaker and assigned a brief research project with a few days spent in the computer lab. I prepared this PowerPoint to serve as the “Engagement” phase of the lesson. I found it very freeing to choose a blank layout for my PowerPoint format. Although a bit challenging at first, I very quickly embraced the “no bullets” approach to building my presentation. The use of a literally blank slate allowed room for much more creativity in developing and sharing the desired message. As the topic of engineering was one that very few of my high school students really knew much about, I chose to provide an overview of the profession in a collage type format. My overall approach was to throw some facts, thoughts, and images out there to get them to begin to comprehend the broad scope of the discipline while providing them with some possible ways to connect their lives to the field. It was a welcome change to think and present in images and complete sentences versus in bullets. Thanks for the challenge!
