Journal Article
Planting the Seeds of Engineering
2019
Overview
To make the engineering process more accessible to preschoolers, teachers followed Christine Cunningham's approach of simplifying the process by breaking it down to three steps: Explore, Create, and Improve. First, children are provided time to explore the problem and access to a variety of materials to spark brainstorming. Children then build on these explorations to create potential solutions. Trying them out, improving on them, and trying again until a satisfactory solution is reached is what engineering is all about. Here, Mnao et al document how a preschool classroom began an engineering investigation by addressing a real problem that requires a solution.
