Engineering: Perspectives of Engineering Faculty (Work in Progress)IntroductionDespite a growing emphasis on engineering in grades K-12, persistently high dropout ratesplague undergraduate engineering programs [1],[2]. Prior studies indicate that engineeringactivities have the potential to increase interest in engineering pathways [3] or develop anengineering identity [4]. Less clear is whether pre-college engineering instruction alsocontributes to students' success in engineering career pathways by adequately preparing studentsfor undergraduate engineering. One concern is that K-12 engineering lessons "may mislead orunder prepare [students] by providing activities that they enjoy but which have little relation toengineering

rapid and robust retraining of workers and restructuring of educational programs forautomotive technicians and mechanics to meet the needs of the growing national electric vehicle(EV) fleet, a need not addressed in existing EV legislation. The vocational training and technical education sector has long complained of beingunder-funded and under-resourced. A 1971 Texas Education Agency report revealed that 70% ofexecutives of organizations in the automotive service and repair industry felt that programs intheir state were not adequately equipped [2]. A 2007 dissertation [3] argued that insufficientfunding was impeding vocational programs’ and community colleges’ abilities to update theircurricula to best serve mechanics seeking to learn

Also, from 2010-12, the PLTW affiliate received over $1.2 million ingrants from TEA to support STEM Teacher Professional Development that subsidized trainingcosts for schools.A second policy decision that may impact future adoptions at the middle school level occurred in2019-20.

This gap between college preparation and career demands isparticularly evident in the engineering field, where technical knowledge is prioritized over softskills like creativity, innovation, leadership, management, and teamwork [3]. Moreover, the shiftfrom traditional instruction to skill-based curricula has gained momentum in educational settingsto center the learner in education.
