Educators - Why Engineering In K12?

College and university engineering educators rely on the good work of their colleagues in elementary, middle, and high schools to prepare students for the rigors of studying engineering in college. But why should you include engineering in your K-12 curriculum?

Because the impact on students is real.

  1. Hands-on learning is effective
    Project-based lessons enhance student understanding of math and science concepts by making them relevant and more enjoyable.

  2. Math and science come alive through engineering
    The concrete and applicable nature of engineering connects what is learned in school with what goes on in the outside world.

  3. Engineering is “academic glue”
    It binds complex math and science concepts to real-world, interactive experiences.
