Instrument Overview

Expert Notes AvailableView expert commentary on strengths and cautions for this instrument
Strengths

Can be used by teachers, coaches, and curriculum developers to analyze lessons and materials *before* instruction occurs and identify opportunities to strengthen engineering connections

Cautions

Appropriate for scoring individual lessons but not entire units or curricular materials

Reliable use, especially for research or cross-classroom comparisons, requires a shared understanding of rubric categories and examples.

Focuses on the infusion of engineering into science instruction; you would need a separate instrument to assess the quality of that underlying science instruction

The Engineering-Infused Lesson Rubric is an instrument that assesses the integration of engineering into science. It contains 12 items divided into three sections (labeled A1-C3): curriculum materials, design-centered teacher practices, and engagement with engineering concepts. The first section has 4 items, the second section has 5 items, and the third section has 3 items.
