Pre-College Engineering Education
Engineering Program, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 2 School of Materials Engineering, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907Introduction Historically, a significant portion of elementary and middle school educators’ pre-serviceeducation has been dedicated to developing students’ reading and writing skills, with some focuson mathematics and only basic coursework for teaching fundamental sciences. In recent years,many education programs have placed a heavier emphasis on math and science, and some nowoffer specializations within the bachelor’s program for teaching these subjects. However,coursework related to engineering and technology remains limited. With the introduction of the Next Generation Science

practiced in real-world settings, educators need to constructopportunities for youth to learn about the socially engaged nature of engineering. Educators canseek to create just and equitable classrooms by cultivating in teachers a critical consciousness ofsocial justice and its role in engineering (Shuster & Giesemann, 2021). This consciousness canbe developed by tying the interactions of classroom life (i.e., talk, texts, technologies) to largerissues of engineering in society. This involves the recognition that engineering is mediated by‘ideologies, beliefs about learning’ and is encoded in ‘representations, spaces and socialpractices’ of the learning environment and of the broader societal context in which engineering ispracticed (Gravel et

majority of gender-proportionality efforts employ one of two general strategies. The first has been described(usually by critics) as the “add-women-and-stir” method. Using the metaphor of plugging aleaky “pipeline,”5 these programs and models concentrate on directly encouraging more womento enter science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields through camps, specialclasses, printed and internet-based advertising, and/or “girl power” media programming. Thesecond strategy addresses the “chilly climate” issues recently highlighted by the landmark MITstudy.6 When applied to undergraduate education, chilly climate models encourage instructors toredesign engineering education using different classroom techniques more congruent withcurrent
