Engineering Teachers’ Literacy InstructionPeople enter and exit science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pathwaysat different points in their educational trajectories (Cannady, Greenwald, & Harris, 2014;Maltese, Melki, & Wiebke, 2014), but middle school is an especially critical juncture forcapturing and maintaining youths’ interest in STEM fields. From fifth to eighth grade,adolescents’ interest in STEM often declines (Gonzales et al., 2008; Osborne, Simon, &Collins, 2003), and many develop a negative sense of self-efficacy regarding their potentialto succeed in future STEM courses (Chen & Usher, 2013). Though many people exit STEMpathways before they enter high school, this problem is especially pronounced

Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (Fundamental)IntroductionIn spite of efforts to diversify the engineering workforce, the profession remains largelydominated by White, male engineers [1]. Better approaches are needed to attract and retainunderrepresented groups to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers,such as engineering.One literacy-based approach that has been shown to provide effective instruction for K-12students generally, and students from underrepresented groups specifically, is DisciplinaryLiteracy Instruction (DLI). DLI utilizes knowledge of the ways advanced practitioners read,interpret, and generate discipline-specific content in their professional environment to apprenticestudents
