AB  - Efforts to provide pre-college students with engineering or engineering-related experiences are on the rise in the United States (US). These efforts are typically undertaken independently of one another and are often in competition to garner greater participation. [PROJECT NAME] is a first-of-its-kind collaboration between two pre-college engineering/STEM education efforts that aims to break down existing silos between programs. The project was piloted in nine US high schools specifically targeting underserved areas. The following study examines high school teacher’s preparedness to teach a blended offering between engineering and robotics curricula following a summer professional development (PD) program. Pilot teachers (n = 9) participated in focus groups to share their perceptions of readiness to implement the blended curriculum. Data was analyzed using open coding and constant comparison methods. Most teachers reported confidence in teaching the blended offering, discussed their plans and expectations, and brought up concerns regarding time and sustaining student interest especially during COVID. This project has implications for pre-college engineering education efforts as it could provide a foundational understanding of how two successful programs can be blended and play a role in educating high school students in underserved communities to experience engineering.
