Engineering for All

As calls for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education at the elementary level become more vociferous, elementary teachers may be wondering whether engineering is meant for all students.

Here they describe how the core practice of engineering and its design process was taught in a third-grade inclusive classroom in which students used this approach to design windmill blades.
