In this episode, Erin and Nicole discuss four stages many teachers move through as they integrate engineering into their science classes. If you aren't yet sold on "engineering" in science, they outline why it's an important  aspect of science that we should be including and provide a framework to consider how you might make the shift toward a more balanced approach to science and engineering. Where are YOU on the progression? Listen to find out!
