Middle School STEM Teachers Sought for Doctoral Research Project
Middle school STEM teacher Vickie Grant, shown here with two ASEE staff members at the Pre-College Division's recent P-12 Engineering Education Workshop in Tampa, Fla., is pursuing a doctorate in education at Piedmont College in Athens, Ga. She seeks at least 400 pre- and in-service middle school STEM teachers to complete a SURVEY for her dissertation project. (It should take about 28 minutes.)
Your confidential results will help her hone a “reliable and effective instrument” – called Efficacy to Teach Engineering Practices in the Science Classroom (E2TEP) – to improve the application of engineering design and practices.
