EbD™ Research

STEM CTL™ is engaged in validating the Technology and Engineering of STEM through research that focuses on storytelling and data-driven discovery. We highlight great technology and engineering teachers doing remarkable work with the Engineering byDesign™ curriculum. We aim to provide data-driven evidence of STEM learning for all students.

Below are examples of research papers and peer-reviewed articles of this data-driven evidence of the integrative STEM curriculum, Engineering byDesign™ curriculum.
