These included the following: (1)time and time management; (2) selection and properties of materials; (3) classroom management;(4) grouping and teamwork; and (5) improved attitudes toward teaching engineering toelementary students. Implications for future iterations of teacher preparation include theimportance of being a participant, a planner, and a facilitator of engineering design.Introduction Best practices for preparing preservice teachers to integrate engineering design into theK-6 curriculum are still being determined.
