Elementary Student Teams’ Design Failure Experiences and Factors that Affect their Opportunities to Learn from Failure (Fundamental)AbstractThe research literature has established that (a) learning from design failure and engaging indiagnostic troubleshooting are fundamental epistemic practices of engineering education, and (b)the ways in which teachers and students prepare for and respond to design failure is varied andcomplex. There is ample space for additional contributions to this literature, particularly withrespect to how teams of students in K–12 classrooms negotiate failure experiences.

Engineers (Evaluation) AbstractThis Evaluation paper describes the preliminary findings for the first two years of a 3-year projectinvolving high school science teachers at a metropolitan-based university. The project’spredominant focus relates to energy, as a unifying theme across scientific and engineeringdomains. The project’s overarching goals were to: (a) deepen high school teachers’ understandingof engineering principles, practices and design, (b) support the development of STEM-integratedcurriculum aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards, and (c) to enhance ongoingcollaboration and interchange among university faculty, local schools, and industry

teacher’s personalteaching efficacy and beliefs in engineering. It was adapted to survey STEM efficacy and to betteralign with the experiences in the summer program. Teachers were asked to use the following 4-point scale: Strongly Disagree, Disagree, Agree, and Strongly Agree to rate how much they agreewith the following questions about teaching efficacy and beliefs: A. I am continually improving my STEM teaching practice. B. I am confident that I can teach STEM effectively. C. I understand STEM concepts well enough to be effective in teaching STEM. D. I am confident that I can answer students’ questions about STEM. E. When a student has difficulty understanding a STEM concept, I am confident that I know how to help the student

high schoolstudents participating in a new engineering summer program. Through employing severalresearch-supported strategies to promote engagement and build interest [4] with authenticengineering content, the goal of this program is to create situational interest and provideopportunities for students to explore individual interest. Situational interest, if supported, candevelop into long-term pursuit of STEM domains in college and/or careers.We explored situational interest through the following questions: 1. How do high school students' interest levels change from beginning to end of a weeklong engineering camp in: a. Triggered Situational Interest (engagement)? b. Maintained Situational Interest-Feeling (enjoyment

Site B is a middle school that enrolled 26 unique students (grades 6-8) in PISECacross the two semesters. The student body at Site B is 52.5% Hispanic/Latino, 40.5% white, and53% economically disadvantaged. Site C is a middle school that only ran PISEC in the secondsemester; they enrolled 10 students (grade 7). The student body at Site C is 63.9%Hispanic/Latino, 31.2% white, and 76% economically disadvantaged. Due to current schooldistrict policies, we are unable to collect demographic information from students and families.We report the demographics of the schools and are confident that the
