Teach Engineering (TE) is designed to empower educators, regardless of engineering experience. TE prepares educators to lead with confidence and spark students’ excitement for discovery. By connecting classroom learning to real-world possibilities, Teach Engineering helps teachers inspire the next generation of change makers.
“Teach Engineering’s greatest strength lies in its ability to support teachers at all levels, from novice to expert. This program has been there to support my growth as an educator and my students’ learning.” — K-12 STEM Educator

The Teach Engineering Digital Library empowers educators to create engaging STEM experiences with free, hands-on resources that promote sensemaking, inquiry, problem-solving, and real-world connections-enhancing K-12 STEM education for all. Our goal is to help educators put the ‘E’ in STEM by bringing applied science, technology, and math to life through engineering design and design thinking.
Many K-12 science and math teachers feel ill-equipped to connect engineering and design thinking with STEM subjects in their classrooms. Teach Engineering professional development equips formal and informal K-12 educators with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to effectively integrate engineering design and design thinking into their existing STEM curriculum.
Teach Engineering’s mission is to ensure that all students have opportunities to engage with engineering and the engineering design process. By collaborating with other organizations, the Engineering Education Community of Practice makes engineering education more accessible, provides resources and opportunities to support educators, and creates interest and skills to a broader range of students.
