Teachers have found themselves quickly creating distancelearning materials to provide equal or greater educational opportunity and engagement as in-person instruction. This shift is met with parallel increased demand on students to independentlymanage their learning and coursework with the absence of in-person supervision, support, andpeer interaction. In this work, we describe our approach and observations in transitioningDiscovery, a secondary student science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)education program, to a virtual platform.Developed by graduate students in 2016, Discovery was designed to engage secondary studentsin semester-long inquiry-based projects within the context of biomedical

However, few studies have linked these two activities to increased interest andparticipation in teaching careers related to STEM. Due to changing national standards anddemographics, the next generation of K-12 teachers will be required to integrate STEM into theirclassrooms while dealing with students of diverse backgrounds that may differ significantly fromtheir own. Of concern are the elementary or K-6 teachers who will be expected to include STEMin their lessons but do not

This is partially an effort to produce a greater number andvariety of STEM professionals; it is thought that this effort will help the US remain competitivein a global economy [1], [2]. Regardless of career choice, STEM education has the potential toimprove the STEM literacy of all students [3]. One of the current trends in STEM education isthe integration of the four disciplines. A main goal of integrating STEM in pre-collegeclassrooms is that students can make connections within and between the STEM disciplines,which has the potential to deepen their understanding of each discipline [4].Of the STEM subjects, engineering has
