This result reveals that experiential learning-based, pre-college engineering education programs, canbe an effective learning opportunity appropriate for, not only high school students, but also middle schoolstudents [16, 17]. This program provided the middle school students with hands-on activities which werewell-aligned to real-world manufacturing situations in an engaging and age-appropriate way.Furthermore, involving undergraduate engineering students as instructors in the program provided avaluable mentorship

States, interest in advancing curriculum and pedagogical practices date back to the late19th century [2]. However, the acknowledgement of engineering education as a formalresearch field is relatively new [3, 4]. It is a global movement where research on engineeringeducation, and creation of associations, conferences, graduate programs, and even newacademic departments for engineering education research (EER) are happening worldwide [5,6].In order to advance EER, researchers have investigated many aspects of the field itself, includingefforts to legitimize engineering education research [3, 7], introducing new research methods anddesigns [8], increasing methodological rigour [9, 10], investigating successful collaborations[11] and resolving
