PBS’s Design Squad, a reality show that exists to get kids to explore what it’s like to work in all types of engineering and design, was a category on Teen Jeopardy this week. Sadly, it was the last category the kids picked. Let’s change that. Design and engineering are fields to get psyched about - let’s help people understand and embrace their value.

We had fun working with PBS on the finale for Design Squad’s first season. We were reminded of the importance of early engineering and design education.
