Alimentos Divertidos is an inquiry-based science and engineering program for P-12 students. To promote our experiments, demonstrations, engineering teaching kits (ETKs), and to further encourage their implementation in P-12 schools, our faculty presented several workshops at the Yucatan peninsula, where P-12 teachers performed and learned how to teach more than ten experiments and demonstrations as part of two ETKs entitled Racing Cars and Under Pressure. Most teachers agreed that the experiments/demonstrations and ETKs are interesting and useful. In general, attendees rated them as good or excellent and felt very or somewhat comfortable performing and teaching the experiments/demonstrations and ETKs after the workshops. More than 75% of the teachers plan to use experiments and/or demonstrations while more than 70% of the teachers plan to use ETKs. The written materials provided were rated as very helpful.
