Accelerating Gains in K-12 Engineering Education. Policy Brief
von Zastrow, Claus; Kelley, Bryan
Education Commission of the States
States' efforts to incorporate technology and engineering into K-12 science instruction appear to be bearing fruit: More than five years after states began adopting K-12 science standards that feature technology and engineering, eighth graders have notched higher scores on a national assessment of those subjects. This Policy Brief presents Education Commission of the States' analysis of results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress in Technology and Engineering Literacy and the questionnaires that accompany it. It also explores state policies and practices that can continue boosting students' exposure to, and performance in, technology and engineering.
