conducted at a public university in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region. Through aquasi-experimental design approach, this research assessed the impact of Ed+gineering on PSTs’engineering and pedagogical knowledge and beliefs towards engineering integration. PSTs wereassigned to treatment and comparison groups based on their course section. All participatingcourses had two versions (treatment and comparison) with the same learning objectives andsimilar content. The PSTs in the treatment group completed the Ed+gineering collaborationproject with engineering students as one of their class assignments. The comparison group wascomposed of PSTs enrolled in the same courses as the treatment group, but in sections that didnot participate in the Ed+gineering

design ideas. improvement ideasResearch QuestionThe research question that drives our study is: In PSTs’ responses to a student work analysistask, what do PSTs notice about students’ first designs and ideas about design performance andimprovement?Curricular ContextThere are two aspects of the curricular context of this study that we will share here. First, we willdescribe the design challenge [25]. Second, we will describe the student work relevant to thepresent study [22].Design ChallengeThe shoreline design challenge is a classroom-tested upper elementary science-integrated designchallenge. In it, a city on a bay in the mid-Atlantic has
