in this research. Studies have argued that a theoreticalframework is essential for informing the study's logic (Svinicki, 2010; Crepon, 2014). This studyfollows a modified version of Piaget's functioning framework. Based on Piaget's theory ofcognitive development, four major stages correspond to an aging childhood period. Stagesequences are universal across cultures and follow the same order. With this concept in mind, theresearch must consider the different stages of cognitive development as pre-college studentsinteract with engineering education. Ideally, the framework should be able to capture thedifferent stages of the learning phase and holistically define what a quality pre-collegeengineering education should consist of.Research

Based on the target student population of the e3Initiative (low income and first generation engineering students), we would like to see firstgeneration students being more likely to voluntarily participate as this program was specificallydesigned with their unique needs in mind. Females comprised only 33% of the survey sample, yet were significantly more likely tovoluntarily participate in the e3 Initiative. Male students, although being the gender-majority inthis study, were less likely to participate. Women continue to remain underrepresented inengineering fields, starting at the undergraduate level [24], but our results support past researchthat women are more likely to participate in co

However, sheintentionally did not propose the specific idea to students. Instead, she led students through aseries of exercises in which they identified and researched various problems within theircommunity, including housing scarcity. Observing students’ genuine interest in the problem ofhousing scarcity, Ms. Green arranged for the class to meet with a potential “client”, anAmericorps member who worked at the school as part of the MakerVista program.

Therefore, providing professional development for in-serviceteachers has the potential to improve teachers’ engineering knowledge and increase studentinterest in engineering. Previous studies underscored the importance of teacher guidance for students inimproving students’ views of engineering and choosing STEM fields for their future career path6,7 . Bearing in mind that teachers lack knowledge about engineering and how to integrate it intotheir lessons 8,9, researchers have created professional development (PD) programs to improveteachers’ knowledge.
