“…Although teaching of science and math by using engineering design practices is most commonly discussed in the literature (Bryan et al, 2016;Moore et al, 2014;NGSS, 2013;NRC 2014;Wang, Moore, Roehrig, & Park, 2011), STEM integration in the agricultural education literature has received limited attention (e.g., Stubbs & Myers, 2016). However, AFNR certainly aligned with existing features of integrated STEM, and AFNR educators and communities undoubtedly have potential to prepare people to solve complex interdisciplinary problems (Andenoro, Baker, Stedman, & Weeks, 2016), which is one of the major goals of STEM integration regardless if it has been discussed in the science or engineering education (Bryan et al, 2016;Moore et al, 2014;NGSS, 2013;NRC 2014).…”
