Engineering in K-12 Education STEM SUMMIT February 19, 2009 Linda Katehi,  University of California, Davis
Study Rationale Concerns about the nation’s innovation capacity Overall quality of U.S. K-12 STEM education Student interest in STEM subjects Size and diversity of the engineering “pipeline” Unverified claims about the ability of K-12 engineering education to address these and other concerns An incomplete picture of the status quo How many programs,  students, and teachers? Trending up, down, flat? Nature of these efforts? Evidence for benefits? How do kids learn engineering concepts and skills?
Study Goal To provide carefully reasoned guidance to key stakeholders regarding the creation and implementation of K-12 engineering curricula and instructional practices, focusing especially on the connections among science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education.
Survey the K-12 engineering education “landscape” Analyze the connections between engineering and the other STEM subjects Review data on impacts Report on the intended learning outcomes (e.g., vocational vs. pre-professional vs. general college) of the various initiatives Study Objectives
Study Process Two-year “consensus study” Oversight committee with diverse expertise Five face-to-face meetings Data gathering Two workshops Public comment period midway through Five commissioned papers Detailed content analysis of 15 curricula External report peer review  Public symposium
Findings:  Scale of Effort K-12 engineering education is a small but growing presence in schools About 6 million K-12 students have experienced a formal K-12 engineering curriculum since the early 1990s About 18,000 K-12 teachers have received professional development, almost all of it in-service
Findings:  Impact The most intriguing possible benefit of K-12 engineering education relates to improved student learning, achievement, and interest in mathematics and science Positive effects have been demonstrated, but not universally Learning gains may be greater for minorities and low-SES students The design process appears to be a key influence, in part by allowing iteration, giving students personal ownership of the content, and contextualizing math and science concepts More research is needed to tease out specific causal relationships
As reflected in the near absence of pre-service education and the small number of teachers who have experienced in-service PD…. 	……teacher preparation for K-12 engineering education is far less developed than for other STEM subjects Findings:  Professional Development
Findings:  Diversity 	Lack of diversity appears to be a serious issue for K-12 engineering education Uneven portrayal of women and minorities  Bias in certain learning activities and examples Few student demographic data being collected Example:  Largest program, PLTW, has only 17%  female students
Findings:  STEM Education ,[object Object]
There is considerable potential value in increasing the presence of engineering in STEM education that addresses the current lack of integration in STEM teaching and learning,[object Object]
Selected Recommendations Recom#2 	Conduct research on how engineering design can be better connected to  science inquiry and mathematical reasoning in curriculum and professional development
Recom#3 	Develop more impact data for existing and new K-12 engineering programs Selected Recommendations
Recom#4 Begin a national dialog, spearheaded by ASEE, on the preparation and certification of teachers of K-12 engineering  Selected Recommendations
Selected Recommendations Recom#5 	K–12 engineering curricula should be developed with special attention to features that appeal to students from diverse backgrounds
Next Steps  ?
