Moreover, thisapproach allows having greater emphasis on sociotechnical approach by applying scientificknowledge and technical skills to address societal and human needs using entrepreneurialmindset.

The purpose of the second face-to-face session was to prepare theparticipants adequately for their independent project, and in retrospect, more hands-onexperience with the hardware/software is necessary for participant success. Future individualengineering projects should start with a simpler model that could be upgraded to a moreadvanced design for participants that are more skilled. The authors believe this shift inphilosophy would boost participant success and self-efficacy, as they would be more likely toconstruct their initial device

During the two semesters of implementation, it was observed thatstudents were more engaged in class, studied more outside of class, performed better on the finalwritten exam, were more positive about learning, and felt that the instructor cared about theirindividual success. In the second semester, an assessment experience survey was developed andadministered to measure the efficacy of the oral assessments in increasing total learning andengagement.

, education courses for PSTs shouldprovide resources and opportunities to increase science and engineering knowledge, andassociated pedagogies to help address the needs of elementary teachers and their students. Hsu et al. [11] found that while elementary school teachers believed that it was importantto incorporate engineering into their curricula, they did not feel confident to teach the concepts.A possible solution is to have PSTs implement engineering lessons in a supported and low-riskcontext. This strategy was found to be a powerful mediator of self-efficacy in a recent study within-service teachers [12]. One means to provide a supportive environment is to partner PSTs withengineering students as they develop lessons. One study found that

teachers do not have a sufficient understanding of engineering concepts [6]. Otherstudies show that K-12 science teachers often do not have any background in engineering [7].Another possible reason for the difficulties that teachers have had in incorporating engineeringinto their science classes is that many teachers lack self-efficacy in teaching engineering [5] [8][9]. In order for teachers to overcome these challenges, there is a need for improved professionallearning opportunities for science teachers focused on teaching engineering.There is a significant push for such professional learning opportunities for K-12 science teachersacross the country.

We employ a full array ofmathematical tools (from algebra through calculus and differential equations) throughout thesemester. In the beginning, the students struggle with vector notation (both how to do it and whatit means physically) and they have little confidence in their calculus skills. Regular practicemoves them toward better self-efficacy. Students can generally do much more than we initiallyexpect, but they need the support and encouragement to get there.

Mastery offers the benefits of higher intrinsic motivation,enjoyment, self-efficacy, and deep learning or conceptual achievement for its own sake [8]. Incontrast, a performance-based approach emphasizes competition between students and is notonly less predictive of STEM success [8], but also less conducive in principle to a constructiveand equitable classroom culture.Discovery uses a PBL approach to encourage secondary students in Grade 11 or 12 university-preparatory biology, chemistry, or physics classes at two participating schools to develop STEMskills through iterative course-long learning.

The results indicated that the point-scale system helped to ‘level the playing field’ andminimize psychological issues such as self-efficacy, anxiety, and motivation that often serve asbarriers to meaningful learning and active engagement.Results also indicated that the new assessment was a bit ambiguous from the perspective ofcategory three, particularly, since students’ actual letter grades were revealed until the last weekof class.
