Teaching High School Engineering Better

Teacher Jerry "Molde" Moldenhauer talks about what he's learned while teaching engineering to high school students over the past years in Austin, Texas. Molde and Pius discuss Project Lead The Way (PLTW), one of the leading K12 engineering curriculum providers today; teaching engineering when you're not an engineer; appropriately teaching math in engineering class; STEAM and other acronyms; and the importance of mentors in the engineering classroom. Our opening music comes from "School Zone (radio edit)" by The Honorable Sleaze, and our closing music is from "Late for School" by Bleeptor.
