The intention of this article is to provide Technology and Engineering Educators with foundational knowledge of mechanism design and analysis and the ability to develop middle and high school students\u27 mechanism knowledge during practical hands-on learning activities in the STEM classroom. Technology and Engineering Educators\u27 implementation of mechanism design and analysis could promote students\u27 increased depth of mechanical knowledge and ability to apply this knowledge during engineering design challenges. In this article, the authors present an introduction to four-bar mechanism design and analysis using CAD software to produce graphical representations. After designing mechanisms graphical, students should be allowed to produce their mechanisms using tools like 3D printers
