In this professional learning experience, educators will deepen their understanding of the engineering design process and how to assess student solutions to real-world problems effectively. Participants will explore best practices for evaluating design solutions based on criteria and constraints, examining examples and research-based strategies. Following this learning, teachers will collaborate to develop a common 6-12 scoring guide, ensuring alignment, consistency, and clarity in assessing student work. This process will support meaningful feedback, promote student growth, and enhance problem-solving skills in STEM classrooms.
