conducted at a public university in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region. Through aquasi-experimental design approach, this research assessed the impact of Ed+gineering on PSTs’engineering and pedagogical knowledge and beliefs towards engineering integration. PSTs wereassigned to treatment and comparison groups based on their course section. All participatingcourses had two versions (treatment and comparison) with the same learning objectives andsimilar content. The PSTs in the treatment group completed the Ed+gineering collaborationproject with engineering students as one of their class assignments. The comparison group wascomposed of PSTs enrolled in the same courses as the treatment group, but in sections that didnot participate in the Ed+gineering

study was conducted in the department of engineering at an undergraduate focused teaching-institution located in the mid-Atlantic region of the United states. This engineering departmentoffers a singular Bachelor of Science degree (BS) and is ABET accredited. The capstoneprogram at this department is four semester long with each semester lasting 15 weeks. Theparticipants were third year engineering students in a second semester capstone design class.These students were chosen for the study because while these students have experiencedgenerating concepts for design problems, they have not learned about creativity in a classroomsetting. Participation in the study was completely voluntary, and the participants could decide notto complete the study

The Academy aimed atrecruiting primarily associate or full professors (tenure or non-tenure track) who had not previouslyworked substantially with the teaching and learning center. Individuals were sent e-mailinvitations asking them to send in a short application and a letter of support from their departmenthead. As an incentive to participate in the program, faculty received one week of summer salary.The inaugural EMIT Academy was held in the summer of 2020, with 9 participating faculty.

The study will thenresearch the ways in which a subset of the workshop teachers teaches engineering in theirclassrooms, using the workshop as a basis of comparison. We plan to use the knowledge we gainthrough this research to make recommendations for teacher educators about the needs of theseteachers and how to best support their use of engineering design projects in their classes. Originally planned as a two-day in-person workshop, the resulting workshop was a four-part series of half-day, synchronous meetings with eight rural teachers from three schools in ruralareas in the Mid-Atlantic region
