Engineering in K-12 provides theopportunity to bring together the science and mathematics content and practices within thecontext of design-based authentic problem-solving. Researchers [7] argue that a sequenced andcohesive K-12 engineering program would be a reasonable option to encourage and preparestudents to STEM career pathways and prepare them for a successful

Engineering, as a key component of STEM education, offers hands-on,designed-based, problem solving activities to drive student interest and confidence in STEMoverall. However, K-12 STEM teachers may not feel equipped to implement engineeringpractices and may even experience anxiety about trying them out in their classrooms without theadded support of professional development and professional learning communities.To address these concerns and support engineering integration, this research study examined theexperiences of 18 teachers in one professional development program dedicated to STEMintegration and engineering pedagogy for K-12 classrooms.
