Using the Qualtricsonline survey software, thirty questions were adapted from Sanders’ [36] survey, placed into anonline survey format, and emailed to a list of 2,341 schools with a greeting and introductiondescribing the study. The email was sent to the school principal and it was requested that theprincipal either pass it on to the appropriate teacher, fill out the survey him/herself, or reply tothe email that there are no technology and engineering classes being taught at the school. Follow-up emails to administrators and teachers who did not respond were sent

Analyzing Successful Teaching Practices in Middle School Science and Math Classrooms when using Robotics (Fundamental)1. IntroductionIntegration of robotics technology as a pedagogical tool in science, technology, engineering, andmath (STEM) education is recognized to have the potential to enhance student engagement [1,2]and learning outcomes [1,3]. A curriculum infused with robotics-based learning activities offersnumerous opportunities to enrich STEM education for students (e.g., through problem-solving[1,2,4], service learning [2], social interaction [5], teamwork [3,4], etc.) and it enables teachers tointegrate engineering [1—5], computing [1—5], inquiry [1], and projects [4,5] into science andmath education.

Not only is 3D printing a new and exciting technology that can beused to improve student awareness of STEM fields and career opportunities, it has proven to beimpactful in visual spatial applications. With the use of 3D printing becoming more popular inK-12 education, the ability to widely implement these blocks is a very real possibility. All fiveschools in this study had 3D printers available for education-focused activities. In each case, theteachers and administrators were eager to develop activities and curriculum using these orsimilar types of blocks or 3D printed aids.
