These lessons were chosen since the purpose of this researchwas to examine how engineering language was used in science- and mathematics-focusedlessons during an engineering design-based STEM integration unit. The portions of the lessonsthat contained the teacher using engineering language or implied engineering language whenaddressing the whole class were transcribed, as well as gestures relating to engineering (e.g.,pointing at a step in the design process displayed on the front wall). Curricular materials,including lessons plans, teacher powerpoint slides, and student worksheets, were used assupporting material to help better understand the

The embedded workshops alongwith the student-centered engineering activities from the camp served as an integratedprofessional learning experience for the STEM teachers. The goal of the professional learningexperience was to help the teachers incorporate engineering standards from NGSS and theframework for K-12

The aforementioned national standarddocuments proposed the following eight integral science and engineering practices (SEPs), whichrepresents a significant departure in reformulating the various levels of U.S. educational system:(1) ask questions and define problems; (2) develop and use models; (3) plan and carry outinvestigations; (4) analyze and interpret data; (5) use mathematics and computational thinking; (6)construct explanations and design solutions; (7) engage in argument from evidence; and (8) obtain,evaluate, and communicate information.

This led us to design the entire curriculum around a central driving question:How can we monitor a disaster area (a town) to alert the community of possible danger? Westructured the curriculum so that each week youth were engaged with engineering designactivities to help them to progress towards “figuring out” this driving question.A second premise of phenomena-based instruction is that youth will find this style of learningmore engaging, as the questions youth have at the end of one activity naturally motivates thenext.

organizing the data collectors and collected data. This is particularly true when working inclassroom settings. Large-scale data collection across multiple schools and classrooms in P-12settings has its own unique set of challenges. To begin with, identifying potential schools andteachers as adopters can be difficult (Back et al., 2015). Schools have schedules and professionaldevelopment commitments; planning for simultaneous implementation for multiple schoolsneeds to be carried out months in advance (Nadelson et al., 2013). Letters of commitment areoften needed from any potential collaborating institutions. P-12 schools may require only a letterof collaboration from the principal, or an in-depth vetting process involving specific

Cunningham [5],encouraged a natural engagement in the design process, presented in Figure 1 below, whichmeant that children may communicate their design and even do so as they created their solutionsin lieu of drawing a plan. Students communicated their thinking even as they synchronouslyplanned and created. Similarly, children could change their designs to improve traps as they werein the creation stage, in order to “promote creativity and a solution” that best suited the problem[5]. This model is representative of skills students need for 21st century jobs and is intentional asa nonlinear model of problem-solving and is open-ended at each stage of the design process. Figure 1.

Though Practice 8 was demonstrated in Classroom B,there was little opportunity for it in Classroom A, so it was not included in the analysis.This review informed the decision to focus on practices 4, 6, and 7, which involve working withdata, explaining phenomena, designing solutions, and engaging in argument from evidence. Toanalyze the student data for these three practices, we broke them down into sub-practicesaccording to NGSS Appendix F [1] for grade band 3 to 5 (see Table 1).For each classroom, we coded for sub-practices first with the richer data

Verbalpersuasion is most effective at increasing self-efficacy when the one doing the persuading is seenas an expert [13]. Exposure to verbal persuasion is also likely to be low for pre-serviceelementary teachers, as engineering design is not a focus of the pre-service curriculum. A majorexception to this, as with mastery experience, would be those in the section of the sciencemethods course at Purdue University that utilizes engineering design. These students activelydesign engineering concepts into science lesson plans with students. This provides masteryexperience while the rest of the course ideally provides verbal
