Connecting Pre-College and University Engineering
September 20, 2018 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Co-sponsored by: Martin Reisslein
Recent developments such as the inclusion of engineering in the Next Generation
Science Standards have greatly expanded opportunities for K-12 students to explore
engineering. As a result, many more students are matriculating into university
engineering programs with significant prior engineering experience which presents
challenges to both the K-12 education system and undergraduate engineering programs.
In this talk, I will discuss these challenges, and how to build alignment between precollege
and university engineering programs by identifying effective practices in K-12
engineering, reshaping university engineering programs to leverage students’ precollege
engineering experiences, and the important role that undergraduate engineering
students can play in transforming pre-college engineering education by pursuing
teaching licensure and careers in secondary school STEM education.
