Abstract
The main purpose of this chapter is to examine the science and mathematics integration models and summarize the relevant literature on the integration of science and mathematics with respect to teacher education. The obstacles reported in these studies were analyzed from the teachers' perspectives, and a model of an integrated teaching method course was offered by considering the drawbacks in the literature. The proposed course is pedagogical content knowledge-based and enriched with the engineering design process to integrate science and mathematics effectively. The main parts of the course are (1) understand, (2) engage, (3) collaborate, (4) apply, and (5) reflect. Recommendations for research and practice are provided at the end of the chapter.

The engineering design process (EDP) is a series of steps that engineers and engineering learners use in creating a functional prototype. The steps of the EDP may vary across engineering disciplines, but generally have some relationship to background research (ask and imagine), synthesis and analysis (plan), building and testing, and evaluation (improve).

Educational Robotics Between Coding and Engineering Education
The engineering design process is an iterative, not linear thinking strategy. It was developed to solve technical problems systematically and uses creative as well as rationale methods. It requires numerous decisions and includes a variety of realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, usability, reliability, aesthetics, ethics and social impact to achieve satisfactory results. In educational applications it helps to develop a kind of engineering thinking for general use that includes the development of student’s creativity and their problem-solving ability.

Innovation in Preservice Teacher Education: Drone-Based Learning
Sequence of steps that engineers usually use to find a solution for engineering. It usually includes a step where the problem and constraints are identified, a step to research the problem, a step to imagine possible solutions, a step to plan and design the solution, a step to create the prototype, a step to test it and a step to improve and redesign the prototype. After this final step, the cycle can start again with a reformulation of the problem.
