The Texas Transportation Institute at Texas A&M University has released a report that investigates new methods for conducting educational outreach activities for kindergarten through twelfth grade (K–12) students designed to encourage interest in engineering, science, and math. The report focuses on two in-class educational outreach modules.
The first in-class module introduces intermediate school students to the world of transportation and transportation engineering and teaches students about the principle of retro-reflectivity. The second in-class module teaches kindergarten students about sign shapes and colors.
