Engineer Your World: Formative Evaluation of a Project-Based High School Curriculum
Abstract
"UTeachEngineering is expanding the national network of high schools offering its project-based engineering design and problem solving course, Engineer Your World. To inform the evolution and continuous improvement of the Engineer Your World curriculum, UTeachEngineering has commissioned an external evaluation. This will include an expert panel review to address the quality of the intended and enacted curriculum. Questions to be addressed in this interactive session include: (1) What are the essential components of the curriculum that experts should have at hand in order to provide meaningful formative feedback?; and (2) What kind of information would high school administrators and teachers need to have in order to determine whether Engineer Your World is appropriate for their school?"
