Note: We require each original, hands-on submission to be classroom tested before we publish. We will need to know the date(s) of testing, location (this can be an informal environment), and number of students who tested the curriculum.

Now that you’ve created and tested your curriculum, it’s time to write it!

  • If you have a lesson that accompanies your hands-on activity, please contact an editor at te-publish@colorado.edu. Note: TeachEngineering does NOT accept standalone lessons; each lesson must be associated with at least one original hands-on activity.
• Use our PowerPoint template and worksheet template if you intend to submit a presentation or worksheets.
