Abstract: The purpose of this review is to examine various educational constructs and explore links to developing middle school engineering teachers. In our technical society today, learning and teaching engineering is becoming more and more important. National and state standards are beginning to include engineering content standards for K-12 classrooms. If teachers are going to begin teaching engineering they will, undoubtedly, need some preparation before they begin. In this review, I look at subject matter knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and expertise and discuss how what has already been done in other fields such as math and science education can be used to inform future development of teaching engineering in the middle school classroom. Conclusions about how subject matter knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge impact teaching and learning along with insights from expertise literature are used to provide guidance for future research and potential professional development implications. %[ 2022-06-08 %~ Tufts Digital Library %W Institution
