In the Capstone Project, students generally work in teams of nine(with a few exceptions depending on the total enrolment).

Some individual teachers may find it challenging to engage in robotics-aided STEMeducation due to their lack of required TPACK self-efficacy (see [5,9] for details about TPACKself-efficacy). Moreover, all robotics-aided STEM lessons are not the same, i.e., their difficultylevels may vary due to variations in the required TPACK. Specifically, while some lessons maybe more complicated from the design or programming (technology) point of view, others may becomplicated from the teaching, learning, or assessment (pedagogical) point of view, and theincorporation of robots (technology) may also impact the pedagogy. Thus, it is important toconcentrate on investigating the TPACK framework for individual teacher and

Beginning as a PDactivity, it develops into a STEM community filled with current classroom teachers,mathematicians and scientists, university faculty, students at all grade levels and community andindustry partnerships. Upon participating in the PD activities, pre-service and classroomteachers receive benefits of the cross-disciplinary program. When these teachers return to theirschools and utilize components of KEEP, the school community benefits from the well qualifiedteachers and cross-disciplinary instructional materials.
