最近关于K-12教育的文件促进了工程教育和科学教育之间的联系，以帮助我们的学生和未来的公民更好地准备好，以更好地应对我们现代和技术社会目前和未来的挑战。在这方面，一直在共同努力提高工程在K-12科学教育中的能见度，这反映在K-12科学教育框架和最近发布的下一代科学标准中。随着各州着眼于通过和实施下一代科学标准，重要的是要更深入地研究这些文件所建议的K-12科学教育的转变，以及这对选择采用这些标准的州的潜在变化意味着什么。指导本论文工作的主要研究问题是：国家科学标准和下一代科学标准中存在的工程的范围和质量是什么？本文将通过对学术国家科学标准和下一代科学标准的比较案例研究，详细分析新一代科学标准发布前后K-12政策中的工程景观。这一比较让我们洞察到，NGSS的广泛采用将意味着我们在美国实施科学教育的方式可能发生什么变化。©2015威利期刊公司J Res科学教学52：296-318,2015
Recent documents pertaining to K-12 education have fostered a connection between engineering and science education to help better prepare our students and future citizens to better meet the current and future challenges of our modern and technological society. With that connection, there has been a concerted effort to raise the visibility of engineering within K-12 science education, which is reflected in the Framework for K-12 Science Education and the recently released Next Generation Science Standards. As states look towards the adoption and implementation of the Next Generation Science Standards, it is important to take a deeper look at the shift in K-12 science education that is being suggested by these documents and what that means in terms of the potential changes for states that have chosen to adopt these standards. The main research question that has guided the work for this paper is: What is the extent and quality of the engineering that is present in state science standards and the Next Generation Science Standards? This paper will present a detailed analysis of the landscape of engineering in K-12 policy before and after the release of the NGSS through a comparative case study of academic state science standards and Next Generation Science Standards. This comparison provides insight into what the widespread adoption of the NGSS would mean in terms of potential changes in the way we implement science education in the United States. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
