Teacher experiences working with professional engineers engaged inempirical research in a laboratory setting are likely limited. Findings from studies investigatingthe outcomes of teachers engaged in research opportunities with scientists have reported researchexperiences help teachers understand the knowledge-generating process of science via immersionin the culture [8]. In addition to participating in a culture of science, teachers also reported learningabout new techniques central to the data collection process of a specific discipline, as well as howto enact “creative alteration” of experimental procedures [8
