STANDARDS-BASED CURRICULAR UNITS FOR ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE, AND HIGH SCHOOL

Integrated into the Engineering byDesign™ (EbD™) model program are standards-based instructional units for
elementary, middle, and high school. These units are available separately and can be used as stand-alone units. In some cases, the units are an integral component of an EbD™ course; in other instances, the units can serve to augment an EbD™ course or to replace an entire unit in the course.
