engineering with science [2]. Conflating engineering with science inhigh school has real consequences for engineering student retention in college. Our own workshows that many freshmen who declare engineering majors enter college not really knowingwhat practicing engineers do despite the students’ professed interested in the field [3,4]. Oncethey do become informed about the duties and daily activities of engineering professionals,previously misinformed students leave engineering majors [5].One key factor (often overlooked by K-12 teachers) that differentiates engineering from otherSTEM disciplines is emphasis on open-ended experimental problem solving [6].
