When studentsparticipate in the InVenture Challenge, they do not work alone at home; rather, they arecollaborating with up to two other student peers and their teacher is guiding them through anengineering design process. As a result, the InVenture Challenge is inclusive and diverse—abouthalf of K-12 participants are female and nearly 40% are underrepresented minorities.The contributions of this paper are two-fold. First, a model is provided for a K-12 innovationprogram housed at a university that is aimed at empowering underrepresented groups in STEMdisciplines by looking further down the pipeline

Engineers are hired to create value for their employer, and if a studentonly knows how to follow a syllabus, then they will not be prepared to anticipate unknownopportunities to create value.

In Phase 3, middle school and high school teachers applied Scratchprogramming in their classes, and university students offered on-site and online support. Overall,such a “hybrid format” (that is, face-to-face plus online) is tailored for K-12 teachers withoutprior programming experience. After completing Phase 2, each teacher was expected to developat least one Scratch project in his/her class. To date, nineteen middle school and high schoolteachers have applied Scratch programming in their classes, with subject areas spanning Math,Science, English, and Music.

engineering education will leave students with an incomplete view of engineering (Moore, Tank, Glancy, & Kersten, 2015; Carr, Bennett, & Strobel, 2012). Science education researchers have argued that it is important for students to understand of the nature of science because it expands student understanding beyond scientific inquiry, the primary activity of science (Bartos, Lederman, 2014). In a similar approach, K-12 students should also understand the nature of engineering, not just engineering design (the primary activity of engineering). A better understanding of the nature of engineering would provide a foundation for students to better understand engineering. Literature Although research into the nature of engineering for K-12

They learn by teaching others through stories.There are many different methods of faculty storytelling in the classroom.

Thus, teacher and administrator buy-in is an absolutenecessity if the goal of the project is to impact a large number of students beyond what islogistically possible through afterschool programs and summer camps. Developing thoserelationships takes time and requires sufficient planning. Second, student participation inafterschool and summer activities will decrease among the same cohort of students as a result ofother extracurricular activities and jobs taking precedence as students increase in age. This maylimit the number of students that a program can reach. The teachers noted that some aspects ofthe program could be
