distinction between self-efficacy and confidence proposed by Stankov andcolleagues, we examined the engineering confidence and curiosity of a group of 29 preservice,elementary teachers across a semester of a scientific inquiry and engineering design coursewhere they engaged in curiosity journaling. We use the term curiosity journaling to describe thestrategy for writing reflections on natural and technological phenomena that an observer noticesand finds interesting. This study also expands upon the Luce and Hsi scientific curiosityframework and reflects the findings of Turner (2012) who observed that the relationship betweenreflection on content and the development of content knowledge is not direct. In addition toexamining journaling strategies that

The codes are used in a wide array of government agenciesincluding the Department of Homeland Security, National Science Foundation, and theDepartment of Labor. The CIP system is also used by state agencies, national associations, andacademia for collecting, reporting, and analyzing data.There are currently 50 major codes being used. The CIP codes begin with a two-digit number;Engineering is 14, Engineering-Related Technologies is 15, and Business is 52, for example.Exhibit 1 shows selected disciplines of study and their associated CIP-2020 codes [2].

We believe these findings reemphasize the need for STEMprofessional-development programs to educate K-12 teachers about engineering and will beuseful to others interested in integrating engineering into K-12 curricula.IntroductionIn 2002, the National Academy of Engineering began advocating to incorporate engineering andtechnology in K-12 education due to the significance of engineering and technology in today’ssociety [1], [2]. In 2013, the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) [3] integratedengineering into K-12 curriculum emphasizing that engineering establishes vital

Microbiology, which is required for all undergraduate EnvironmentalEngineering students, should be a prerequisite for this course. With this pre-requisite content inmind, undergraduate Environmental Engineering students could take the course the last semesterof their senior year. Students earning a degree in Environmental Studies don’t typically have allof these courses, so some changes would need to be made to accommodate cross-listing.
