Why Elementary Engineering? Technological literacy is a basic 21 st century literacy Makes math and science relevant, integrates other disciplines Builds and reinforces skills Increases students’ awareness of and access to engineering and science careers

Engineering is Elementary (EiE) Lessons that integrate engineering and technology concepts into elementary science. Goal 1. Increase children’s technological literacy. Goal 2. Increase elementary educators ability to teach engineering and technology. Goal 3. Increase the number of schools in the U.S. that include engineering at the elementary level. Goal 4. Conduct research and assessment to further the first three goals and contribute knowledge about engineering teaching and learning at the elementary level.
