engineering vicarious experiences, they can inform their ownteaching practices and practice reflective teaching as they teach lessons. IntroductionWithin the last decade, there has been a push for engineering to be taught in the K-12 schoolsystem. Integrating engineering into the classroom is especially important due to the expressedneed for engineers from organizations such as the National Academy of Engineering and fromreports like PCAST that predicted a need for one million more STEM professionals by 2020 [1],[2]. In addition to this expressed need, research shows that students begin making career choicesas early as, if not before, high school, so it is important they gain an understanding of

Faculty reflections also notedthat the use of games that allow learners to answer the questions individually helped facultyidentify those students who had successfully mastered the concepts, which allowed the instructorto structure peer-to-peer active learning opportunities during class more effectively.
