Project Purpose & DescriptionWith the program’s overarching theme of energy, we aimed to: (a) deepen high school teachers’understanding of engineering principles, practices, and design, (b) support the development ofSTEM-integrated curriculum aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), and(c) to enhance ongoing collaboration and interchange among university faculty, local schools, andindustry-based personnel. The purpose of the program evaluation was both formative andsummative, aiming to improve incoming cohorts’ experience, and report on the impact of theprogram on participants.
