needed to pursue a STEM degree,and retain more of those students with an expressed interest in such careers as theyprogress through baccalaureate programs and beyond. Given that one-third of studentsdeclaring the pursuit of an engineering degree quit before completion, there is significantopportunity for improvement.Experiential education is one frequently suggested method of retaining a greaterproportion of those entering an engineering path through to completion of the degree. Inaddition to the commonsense logic of immersing the student into an environment moreclosely resembling the workaday world to put theory into context, there are distinctbenefits to addressing the variability in students’ learning styles.

Reflexive thematic analysis (RTA) is a powerful, “theoretically flexible” approach to thematic analysis first developed by Braun and Clarke in 2006 for “qualitative research in and beyond psychology” [13].

grades and class ranks are better predictors of first-year college grades than students’ SATscores.11-12 More recently, secondary and post-secondary educators question whetherstandardized test scores predict grades beyond the first year through to obtaining collegedegrees.13-14 Thirty-seven different studies have shown consistent gender bias in standardizedtests, with a typical finding that women’s college grades are under-predicted by the SATstandardized test.15 In particular, Wainer and Steinberg found that males score 35 points higheron SAT Math than females who earn the same grades in the same college math courses.16 Also,various studies have found no common pattern to the results for validity and prediction of SATfor different racial/ethnic

encourage them to pursue STEAM careers. One particularly effective approach isthrough hands-on learning and “making,” since children often have a natural affinity fortinkering and learn well through active involvement in meaningful activities [1]. Hands-on,project-based learning has been shown to get more students engaged with STEAM and help themlearn key skills for the future [2]. However, most STEAM education programs target students inupper-middle or high school [3]. Bustamante et. al write, “Since engineering education hastraditionally not been part of the general K–12 education experience (i.e., the beginning ofprimary school (age 5) through the end of secondary school (age 18)), early childhood educatorshave minimal background in engineering
