This course is based on the Constructivist Learning Theory, and provides hands-on experience with concepts and real-world applications of engineering appropriate for elementary-age learners. Coursework links to established Polk State College programs, such as Aerospace, Engineering Technology, TALON Robotics, and the LEGO® Robotics Enrichment Academy. Teacher candidates design standards-based Five-E (i.e., Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate) lesson plans that include differentiated strategies and assessment, build content knowledge, strengthen critical-thinking skills, and foster capacity for innovation. This course is a Florida (2010) ESOL Endorsement competency-infused class.
