Overview of Engineering Design Unit

How do we promote engineering literacy in K-12? How do we move beyond fun building activities to promote accurate ideas of engineering? We break it down in the included Framework for Engineering Learning along with a guide on how to implement authentic, engaging, and meaningful engineering and STEM learning.

The lesson plan walks you through how to plan for each phase of an engineering design challenge:

  1. Define the Real-World Context
  2. Identify the Design Problem
  3. Brainstorm & Design
  4. Build/Test/Evaluate
  5. Share & Reflect


Looking for high-quality but low-prep STEM lessons?

Here are recommendations (NOT included in this product) that follow the engineering design process:

Lower Elementary (PreK - 2nd) 

Upper Elementary (3rd - 5th) 

Middle School (6th - 8th)

A great resource from Vivify STEM for teachers developing their own STEM plans. This template breaks each step down and offers suggestions along the way. There's also support for standards alignment.
