À propos de cet audio

This episode dives into how the "Engineer Your World (EYW)" curriculum is engaging high school students in authentic engineering experiences and inspiring them to embrace an engineer’s habits of mind. Laura Beachum and I along with mentoring EYW teachers and faculty from the University of Texas at Austin explore the challenges students face when they encounter new concepts for the first time, emphasizing the importance of collaboration, teamwork, reflection and perseverance in overcoming discomfort. We all reflect upon our own experiences from a recent EYW Professional Development Summer Institute and how Laura and I plan to implement the human-centered engineering projects at Detroit Country Day School. The discussion highlights the necessity of creating a supportive environment where students can thrive and learn from failure, reinforcing the idea that education is not just about finding the right answers but about the journey of discovery and understanding. Join us as we unpack practical strategies that bring brain science to life in the classroom and make learning meaningful for every student.
