Go behind the scenes with the YES curriculum team to see how they use the Engineering Design Process to develop our own curriculum. Using the new lower elementary unit, Engineering Drums, they will trace the journey from an initial idea to a classroom-ready engineering experience. You’ll see:
- Where unit ideas come from
- How learning goals, engineering design, and classroom realities shape the choices we make
- What happens during classroom testing
- How evidence and feedback help us see what works and what needs to change
You’ll come away with a deeper understanding of the thinking behind YES curriculum—and new ways to think about the Engineering Design Process in your own classroom. Their approach is grounded in nearly three decades of research, development, and learning alongside educators. Join YES to see the design process in action!
