Our study included 17 elementary teachers enrolled in one semester ofIntroduction to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education course.This course is designed to provide teachers with experiences, knowledge, and pedagogy neededto successfully implement STEM in their classrooms. The majority of teachers (N=14) have beenteaching for 10 or more years and have undergraduate and graduate degrees in Early Childhood,Elementary Education, and General Education. However, only two teachers have educationalbackground in Mathematics and Educational Media Technology.We analyzed teachers’ written reflections and critiques of lessons.

It also outlines benefits to each partner in engaging in this type of partnership, and recommendations to other institutions wanting to design a similar program. Findings from the study can be used to inform curriculum and design of future international experiences for engineering students. Partnerships between universities and industry have long been important for schools ofengineering. In the U.S., growth in university-industry partnerships began in earnest in the1980’s due in part to changes in national technology policies which sought to promotecooperative research and increase diffusion of technologies

As a result, students’conceptual understanding was enhanced, and their exam grades were improved accordingly.Using smart devices in the class could be distracting, but can be alleviated by asking students touse the smart devices only during the poll question time, and put the smart devices away afterfinishing the poll responses. Overall it is beneficial to integrate the system into engineering classes to enhance classinteraction and participation. However, good implementation can be time consuming, as studentsand instructors need time to adjust to the new technology, there are the technological glitcheswith the system and network access, the login system may be inconvenient, and questions needto be designed cautiously to prevent
