Humanities grant. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 An Instructional Framework for the Integration of Engineering into Middle School Science ClassroomsIntroduction A Framework for K-12 Science Education [1] describes three dimensions of science andengineering. These dimensions include core ideas from life science, physical science, earth andspace science and engineering, a set of crosscutting concepts that span across these fourdisciplines, and eight practices that are used in science and engineering to develop and revisenew knowledge about the natural or material world. This description of science and engineeringis intended to convey a more realistic understanding of what

The game is developedbased on a design of geothermal piles which represent an innovative and sustainablegeotechnical solution to the global climate change issue. Virtual reality is applied to visualizethe field environments (e.g., geomaterials, ground conditions, and sampling), laboratoryconditions (e.g., technician, testing devices, and tools), and design components for structuralsimulation (i.e., finite element software). The gameplay is story-based and task-driven toengage students with geotechnical concepts in a pleasant way. Several mini-games have

Our motivation was to introducestudents to a missing or underrepresented element of the curriculum at CSM, and to do so in sucha manner that challenges the “sacred cow” notion of the ES core curriculum2, 3, reinforcing thehigh value of social justice to engineering as opposed to placing it in a course with lowerperceived value.

The goal of these PD workshops was toincrease teacher’s confidence and capability in integrating culturally relevant computing andcoding experiences within their curriculum and instruction. Here, we set our focus on the impactof the PD. Through the PD, teachers were engaged in computing and coding professionaldevelopment via Code.org. The teachers were then asked to apply what they learned aboutcoding by developing and implementing culturally relevant computing and coding experiencesfor their students.
