Invention, Innovation and Inquiry - Engineering Design for Children Abstract This preservation will focus on the NSF funded project entitled Invention, Innovation & Inquiry (I3). It will highlight how the project was formulated, the materials developed, results of field testing and implementation, and future activities. Special attention will be given to how the I3 project emphasizes the integration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in each unit as student follow an engineering design process to solve a technological challenge. The I3 program has developed 10 units of instruction that focus on the development of technological literacy traits for students in grades 4-6.
