RESOURCE COLLECTIONS
Link Engineering
The LinkEngineering website is an online community of educators interested in providing meaningful engineering experiences to PreK-12 students of all abilities. LinkEngineering is a resource website that provides examples of engineering in educational settings. It also provides background information on engineering and engineering design.Engineering Go For It (eGFI)
eGFI is the American Society for Engineering Education’s interactive website for K-12 students and teachers. The interactive website includes daily updated information on engineering careers, role models, students, and lessons and ideas for teacher.The TeachEngineering Digital Library
The TeachEngineering digital library provides teacher-tested, standards-based engineering content for K-12 teachers to use in science and math classrooms. Engineering lessons connect real-world experiences with curricular content already taught in K-12 classrooms. Mapped to educational content standards, TeachEngineering‘s comprehensive curricula are hands-on, free, and relevant to children’s daily lives. All activities are reviewed by volunteer reviewers.

Safer Engineering and CTE Instruction
Co-published by ASEE, the National Science Education Leadership Association (NSELA) and the International Technology and Engineering Educators Association (ITEEA), this resource gives research-based guidance on safety for engineering and STEM activities.
FEATURED MEMBER RESOURCES
Teacher-Led Reflection Activity
In this activity, each student will be provided stickers/sticky notes (if you want to do research with this activity put a number on them), and will be prompted to individually think about up to 7 prompts about engineering. Students will place their sticker on a line somewhere between strongly disagree and strongly agree to correspond with their response to the prompt.
