A Survey Tool to Get Kids Thinking about Engineering
Engineering may sound pretty boring to your typical tween or teen. Do you ever talk to your students about STEM careers in engineering? We really can’t expect them to appreciate all the creative possibilities without some “awareness raising.”
Visit this post at my MiddleWeb blog – Could Engineering Be the Coolest Job Ever? – to read some language I’ve used with students and in my writing over the years. It’s language we might use to interest students in researching the many exciting job prospects in STEM-related fields.
Need something quick? Here’s a student survey I’ve put together – the Engineering Interest Check-up. You could use it with some ideas from my MiddleWeb post or as a stand-alone. It’s a 3-minute, one page student awareness survey. Click to download the PDF.
