Teacher PD has been shown toimprove student achievement in science [14], and PD is considered imperative to the realizationof standards in curriculum [15]. Teachers are typically required to earn a certain number ofcontinuing education credits (CEUs) as part of their work contract. CEUs may be earned anumber of ways, including workshops and courses at nearby institutions, however this can beproblematic. One-shot workshops designed for teacher enrichment can be useful, howeverlonger-term PD programs are required to support standards which reach all students [15]. Thelimitations of the

nature, engineering and teaching both require problem solving, and integrating the topicsand practice of engineering research with the extant curriculum in a STEM classroom also requirescreativity and innovation. One explanation for the benefit of cognitively-diverse teams oncomplex, creative tasks is the cognitive diversity hypothesis [13,18,19]. The cognitive diversityhypothesis posits that dissimilarity in team makeup (with regard to task-related attributes)discourages groupthink and encourages positive member disagreement, debate, and discussion, aswell as introducing differing attitudes, perspectives, and knowledge structures [18-23]. Similarly,the information processing perspective provides an additional framework to explain

The idea of early childhood makerspace as a place to facilitate engineering teaching andlearning is a relatively new notion. While the makerspace concept began in the early 21stcentury, it’s standing in higher education settings and high school curricular activity is steadilyincreasing in acceptance and practice.
