Instruction that fails to recognize this reality can adversely affect student engagement in science. Calabrese Barton therefore argues for allowing science and science understanding to grow out of lived experiences [28]."

Sneak preview! Our YES #classroomengineering lessons with an aerospace theme are still in development, but PA high school students got to test-launch their "stomp rockets" this week as part of the @PSU_CollegeOfEd "Spend a Summer Day" program. #StemEducation
