The project is a new high school level engineering education initiative thataims to ‘demystify’ engineering for high school students, teachers, and counselors through anall-inclusive high school level engineering course. Three key components of the project include:1) design and development of a new engineering course open to all high school students, 2)teacher and counselor PD, and 3) a learning community of teachers, counselors, engineeringeducators, and practicing engineers.

The main objective of the project was to develop curriculum that couldsupport the adoption of the NGSS Standards in the state of Nevada while providing students withan integrated learning experience that could promote achievement among diverse learners. Thelong-term goals of the project were to pilot, revise, and expand upon the curriculum for othergrade levels.

I have been introducing pre-college students (primarily late elementary and middle school students) to engineering for a number of years now and find that engineering design works well as the content and context for these students. I have attempted all sorts of design projects ranging from well-structured, LEGO-based design challenges to open-ended, ill-structured design challenges using craft or found materials. As the idea of Makerspaces became more popular, I liked the idea that students could
