  4. A study of EE perceptions among high school females found that inviting female students to a one-day conference at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa increased interest in the field of electrical engineering and corrected their perceptions regarding work opportunities in EE. [Findings stated first.] Interest in EE as a profession increased among the attendees, from 19 out of 124 (15%) respondents at the beginning of the day, to 29 out of 45 (65%) at the end of the day. [Details of first finding stated.] At the beginning of the day, only four students were able to identify a specific EE topic. At the end of the day, 11 specific EE topics were identified by the respondents, including robotics, image processing, and artificial intelligence. [Details of second finding stated.] The authors infer from this study that exposing students to female role models will enrich individual perspectives of the profession. They recommend that EE be presented as realistically as possible to high schoolers in order to emphasize the multifaceted possibilities in the profession rather than just the technical challenges. The authors plan to conduct future studies of a similar nature. [Conclusion, recommendations, and future plans stated.] Technical Report Structure

  5. IEEE for the Camera-Ready Copy Primary structure: • two-columns • Times New Roman font • Tables/figures come at bottom or top of columns • Number citations in square brackets

  6. Headings • Use Times New Roman font. • Decide on organization and levels. • Depict organization with font size and /or numeration (see handout for IEEE chart). - Within each level, make the headings parallel.

  7. Tables and Figures

  8. Equations • Set off from text with one blank line above and one blank line below. • Number with equation number in parentheses. a + b = c (1)

  9. References • \

  10. To quote or not to quote

  11. Grammar
