Age-Possible Engineering Analytic Principles and Predictive Computational Skills for K-12 Students:
Presenting a List of High School Xth Grade Age-Possible Thermodynamics Topics to Engineering and Technology Educators and Curriculum Developers
This document presents a list of topics of thermodynamics together with relevant formulas and mathematics, physics and chemistry pre-requisites, for the development of high school age-possible engineering instructional materials. In addition, it lists the page numbers of a college-level thermodynamics textbook, which could be used as references in the development of high school age-possible instructional materials.
Presenting a List of High School Xth Grade Age-Possible Thermodynamics Topics and Estimating the Time Slot Needed for Their Coverage in High School Schedule
This document lists the page numbers of a college-level engineering textbook (on the subject of Thermodynamics), which could be used as references in the development of high school age-possible engineering instructional materials. The document uses a practical conceptual framework for estimating the allocation of time needed for teaching the above high school age-possible thermodynamics topics in high school classrooms, using standard high school mathematics, physics and chemistry textbook as references for comparison, in terms of the organization of topics, homework assignment, structure and other factors.

Original Research Data:
The table below constitutes the original research data, which lists the engineering knowledge content from every
topics covered in two popular college-level engineering textbooks, with the knowledge and skills in mathematics, physics and chemistry needed as cognitive pre-requisites to effectively study these engineering topics, and then compare these lists with Georgia Performance Standards (available in 2009),which lists the topics of mathematics, physics and chemistry that K-12studentsare required to master at each grade level, to determine at what grade level a particular topics of engineering could possibly be studied effectively. Later on, after this website has been fully established, volunteer engineering professors will be recruited to review the data.
