ourcreation of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) as a guiding philosophy.We need to show our students the use of STEAM concepts in real-life applications. In searching for a solution to change the way we teach high school students STEMcourses, we found a new and unique program called CAPSULE offered by NortheasternUniversity. The approach uses engineering-based learning (EBL). Thus, two teachers (oneteaches chemistry and one teaches physics/math) from our school attended the ProfessionalDevelopment (PD), offered as part of an NSF grant. Unlike traditional pedagogical approachessuch as the 4E and 5E models and the scientific method, the EBL pedagogical approach providestwo benefits. First, it contextualizes the STEM

STEM graduate students areselected to serve as resident scientists or engineers and spend one full day each week throughout theacademic school year in a middle school science classroom. These GK12 Fellows engage the students byproviding inquiry-based learning experiences and authentic demonstrations, which bring relevance byrelating the science curriculum to real world challenges.

The decline in HK contrasts with: the range ofopportunities to study technology/engineering in upper levels of secondary and vocationalschools; extra-curricular opportunities offered by engineering institutions and manufacturingorganizations; and high levels of engineering interest among mainland (Chinese) and otherimmigrant students. Understanding the take-up of engineering opportunities by secondarystudents in HK must acknowledge that students are active participants in their course/careerchoices – but choice will be constrained by the organizational, pedagogic and personal
