After compiling andplotting the data from these survey responses, the E3 team noticed inconsistences with thequantitative data (i.e., pre- and post-program survey responses) as compared to the written (andverbal) comments (i.e., qualitative data) from the teachers. The teachers’ comments led the E3team to believe that the program had a pronounced impact on their understanding of engineering,engineering careers, and characteristics of engineers.
