Explore how to integrate engineering design into your STEM curriculum with a pair of TeachEngineering two-day workshops – the nation’s first PK-12 engineering design teacher professional development endorsed by the American Society for Engineering Education.
TeachEngineering and the University of Colorado Boulder’s schools of engineering and education have teamed up to offer two online workshops in June and August, each designed to help classroom teachers integrate engineering into their STEM curricula. Both workshops have earned the American Society for Engineering Education‘s first Engineering Teacher Professional Development Endorsement.
Meet new colleagues and hone your design thinking – and doing – skills in these two-day, learn-by-doing workshops that support you in putting the “E” in STEM back in your classroom. Together, we’ve got this!
Come prepared to learn about engineering design and create a lesson plan around a topic of interest!
Focus on developing hands-on engineering design challenges for PK-12 youth through the exploration of the engineering design process. Get familiar with the three-dimensional elements of the NGSS and learn how these elements support both phenomena-based learning and engineering design thinking.
Learn about resources and work with engineering design activities that support both in-person and remote student teams, building on phenomena that students encounter in their everyday lives.
Participants will explore the engineering design process, engineering applications of real-world science and technology challenges, global interconnectedness of engineering, and various engineering careers. In addition, they will solidify how design thinking can be used in a solutions-focused, human-centered way to creatively solve real-world problems that we all experience in our everyday lives.
Engineering Prototyping and Pedagogy Skills and Tools for PK-12 and making connections to NGSS science phenomena
June 23-24 or August 3-4, 2022
8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. MT each day
Come prepared to learn and add new tools to your toolbox!
Discover how to use resources in this workshop that help students understand and integrate engineering prototyping technologies and design thinking into their STEM learning. This workshop offers hands-on break-outs that dive into the importance of engineering design and design thinking in the NGSS – using an array of specific skill-building workshops to support development of product prototypes.
Enhance your PK-12 engineering design skills through hands-on experience with online engineering design tools as you self-select skill-building sessions on topics such as Prototyping on a Shoestring, OnShape (CAD), TinkerCAD (circuits/arduinos), remote design team project management (Trello), system flowcharts (Draw.io) and teamwork.
$55 per virtual workshop
University of Colorado Graduate Teacher Education Credit is available for each workshop.
