mathematics have always been taught. Technology, in the sense of instructional tools, hasfound its way into some places and not into others, and most STEM educational efforts reallyexclude engineering. More recent conversation has centered on so-called I-STEM, or integratedSTEM, with the implication that the four involved subjects are not stand-alone but really havesome interdependencies. Some groups want to use the term STEAM to officially recognize theimportant role of the arts. What is needed going forward is not a debate on semantics, but a trueparadigm shift in education. This is the role that engineering can play in K-12 and beyond, usingknowledge and experience to solve problems.The state of North Carolina has had a history of leadership in
