EngineeringIntroduction With the publication of the Framework for K-12 Science Education (National ResearchCouncil, 2012) and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), emphasis is now placed onthe integration of engineering principles and practices into K12 science education. Although only18 states and the District of Columbia have formally adopted the NGSS, other states, includingSouth Dakota, Montana, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia have adopted similar standards.Unlike the previous set of national science education standards (NRC, 1996), the Framework forK-12 Science Education (NRC, 2012) places engineering and technology alongside the naturalsciences for two critical reasons: to reflect the importance of understanding the human-builtworld and to

examined 40 lesson activities from a website that provides teachers withover one thousand free activities. This website was chosen because it is NSF-funded, acollaborative effort from several well-respected universities, and a top hit when searching for“K-12 Engineering Activities” on Google. It is also one of the only sites that provides completeunits, as opposed to stand-alone activities, at no cost.A search was conducted within the website to limit the focus of this research, which includedlooking at complete units under “Science and Technology” that cover the Engineering DesignStandards for grades 3-5. All lesson activities were coded by two of the researchers, using acodebook that was developed with the “practices matrix” in the NGSS. The

inengineering by producing a legitimate artifact and producing knowledge.DiscussionDominant engineering paradigms often rely on having resources. As indicated by Wachs [48],engineers have been masters of technology driven mostly by economic motives and influencedby corporations and government. Rasquachismo, on the other hand, is a model that has beenappropriated by those who do not have resources and embrace ambiguity, ingenuity, andresourcefulness - rasquachismo is rooted in experience for survival and resistance. Nonetheless,rasquachismo also becomes a vehicle to the world of engineering. Similar to engineering,rasquachismo seeks to (1) generate potential solutions to a problem, (2) accomplish simple tasksthrough complex ingenuity, (3) generate

[4] used a Likert scale instrument tomeasure K-12 teachers’ familiarity with engineering, engineering design, and technology (DET).Most teachers in the study had low familiarity with DET, which was attributed to lack ofknowledge, lack of training, lack of administrative support, and lack of time for learning aboutDET. Subsequent studies using the DET instrument reported similar findings [5], [6]. There is a lack of research literature devoted to the barriers of implementing engineeringat the K-5 level. However, the literature related to the barriers to
