Teaching and Learning STEM in Peruvian High Schools with an Emphasis on Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

4 pages•Published: February 12, 2020

Abstract

This paper presents an ongoing work to involve Peruvian high school students in scientific research, engineering design, and mathematical modeling. It describes extracurricular workshops and classroom sessions to discover natural laws and solve real problems in local communities. The emphasis is on teaching and learning electrical engineering and computer science with an integrated approach to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The paper also introduces a project- based and inquiry-based curriculum for high school, and GRISEL, a tool for virtual experiments with electronic design and computer programming.

Keyphrases: eecs in high school, inquiry based learning, mathematical modeling, out of school stem, project based learning
