To ensure anequal opportunity for all campus partners to be involved, invitations are sent to the Dean of eachCollege and Director of each Research Institute. This yielded a financial commitment from theOffice of the President, Office of the Provost, Office of Inclusion and Diversity, Office forResearch and Innovation, and the Institute for Critical Technology and Applied Science(ICTAS).

The study will thenresearch the ways in which a subset of the workshop teachers teaches engineering in theirclassrooms, using the workshop as a basis of comparison. We plan to use the knowledge we gainthrough this research to make recommendations for teacher educators about the needs of theseteachers and how to best support their use of engineering design projects in their classes. Originally planned as a two-day in-person workshop, the resulting workshop was a four-part series of half-day, synchronous meetings with eight rural teachers from three schools in ruralareas in the Mid-Atlantic region

Furthermore, weare interested in testing different engineering disciplines and comparing their self-assessedand judged scores. This research effort continues, and we plan to elaborate by presentingfirst-year and senior-year students with more open-ended problems multiple timesthroughout a semester. Additionally, our panel of experts are still judging the students’solutions for creativity and validity. In the future, we may expand our judging panel toinclude engineers from industry as their perception of creativity may or may not bedifferent. The small sample size of judges may lead to variance in scoring, but we hope thatfuture studies include more judges to decrease possible

This course was offered topracticing teachers during the 2018 spring semester, and the aim was to determine how theseteachers would use collective argumentation to learn how to code and what lesson plans theywould develop to teach their students how to code.
