conventional, short-term PD makes a program such as an RET ideal formeaningful curricular change and student growth.Review of RET ProgramsThere are numerous RET programs nationwide, only a few of which are focused on waterresearch. A water project in an engineering-centered “RET-E” program at Rutgers introducesgreen roof design as a project [16]. The RET teachers consider engineering concepts includingwater absorption, mass and weight of the roof, cost efficiency, and thermal conductivity for thedesign exercises. After they’ve designed the roof, the teachers are prompted to amend the designto be usable on an inclined roof.

These included the following: (1)time and time management; (2) selection and properties of materials; (3) classroom management;(4) grouping and teamwork; and (5) improved attitudes toward teaching engineering toelementary students. Implications for future iterations of teacher preparation include theimportance of being a participant, a planner, and a facilitator of engineering design.Introduction Best practices for preparing preservice teachers to integrate engineering design into theK-6 curriculum are still being determined.

In one course, project-based learning (PBL)was used to teach pre-service teachers engineering design and fabrication. Such project-basedapproaches allow pre-service teachers to personally engage with project-based learning, a pre-requisite for its use in their future classrooms [5]. Furthermore, the use of hands-on activities canpromote learning and a positive attitude toward the subject [5].
