Region 18 Round-Up 2025: Learning Under the West Texas Sun

Engineers solve problems by using a systematic process called the Engineering Design Process, which includes identifying the problem, identifying the constraints and criteria,generating ideas,and testing possible solutions. With a growing demand that scholars be prepared for STEM-focused careers, teachers have an increased responsibility to incorporate engineering into their classroom—often a difficult task. In this session, experienced STEM coaches will take participants on an engineering journey! Hands-on learning will be the focus and will include structures and strategies that teachers can implement in their classroom the very next day. Engaging and useful formative assessments will be used to check for understanding to be sure that no participant is left behind.
