characteristics of effective PD identified in the literature include:(i) sufficient duration; (ii) focus on subject matter; (iii) hands-on activities; (iv) attention toproblems of practice; and (v) institutional support for implementation. It is further suggested thatteacher learning is best promoted by a set of complementary approaches, such as summer PD andonline discussions as follow up [24].Traditionally, the focus of teacher PD programs has been on preparing teachers to follow, ratherthan to create or adapt, innovative, research-based curriculum materials [25]. However, whenteachers do not understand the underlying model of the expert-designed curricula provided tothem, they tend to pick and choose elements of the new curriculum to fit their

SJ concerns [3], we work with more technocratically oriented STEM majors. For thisreason, we decided to start our research by inquiring into perceptions that students have aboutcontextualized and decontextualized problems (Con/Decon), and what resources they would useto try to write contexts, in order to understand how we might successfully coach them to come upwith context on their own.Evidence suggests that the invisibility of SJ concerns in engineering curricula factors into a“culture of disengagement” [2], [5], [7]. This scholarship posits that the divide between technicalknowledge and social concerns in engineering curricula impacts undergraduate engineeringmajor retention -- since students who are more driven by social/humanitarian

Analysis of costs and benefits is a critical aspect of decisions about technology (HS-ETS1-1 and 1-3).Yet, helping youth understand the complexities of sociotechnical issues in engineering is nosmall feat, and teachers and researchers alike struggle to support students’ understanding of themultiple and multi-faceted factors involved in implementing engineered solutions to address ahuman need or desire.
