An engineering design teaching guide for high school teachers

We describe a teacher's guide for those wishing to incorporate engineering concepts and practices into the high school science and math curriculum. The teacher's guide includes the following aspects of engineering design: problem analysis, brainstorming solutions, teamwork, documentation, prototyping, materials selection, testing, and cost-effectiveness. It is oriented toward encouraging participation in our annual engineering design contest.
