significantly increase their self-efficacy in STEM teaching, their own interest /attitudes toward science, and their understandingof inquiry-based STEM instruction. Similar findings were reported by other educators [5, 8, 9].School programs with hands-on and manufacturing focuses –as compared to academicmathematics or pure science– would be attractive to students since they can relate the training toeveryday examples, potential employment, and even advanced careers. Some middle /highschools, however, limit the growth of their technology-related programs, robotics clubs, orSkillsUSA programs due to budget constraints and/or lack of technical expertise of teachers. Itwould be necessary to reverse the trend by providing infrastructure and manufacturing
