worked to create but had fun at the same time: “Playing with Legos (is my favorite 15part), because I get to create things. I love creating things.” This seventh grade participantrecognized the need to use their brain to be innovative: “I feel like not just to be smart, but to behealthy, to be strong [sic]. It isn’t all about the brains. Most of it’s the brains, otherwise who’dcome up with NASA and stuff like that.” An eighth grade participant reported, “I was already thinking about it (a STEM career) butI think it made me for sure that I want to be an engineer later on [sic].” The participant enjoyedthe rocket launch experiment, as (s)he reports, “I think it was just really fun to

ontological framework. Lastly, upon examination of the cognitive processes K-12 students’ employ duringdesigning, few coding schemes actually are informed by educational philosophies, learningtheory, and STEM educational reform. Nor, do they indicate how students can be better equippedto learn and develop their cognition while designing. As researchers and educators moveforward, examining decision making strategies as well as normative models may provideadditional relevance to Design Cognition in terms of how students are performing in relation toeducational philosophies, learning theory, and STEM Educational reform.

design from the start. The fifth principle is to ensure allscience and mathematics concepts, and technology tools employed are necessary forstudents’ successful completion of the STEM-design projects. With these principles inmind, the next step is to examine classroom enactments of the curriculum, focusing onthe extent to which students apply mathematics and science concepts to their designwork and the challenges and affordances for doing so (Berland, 2013).Effective Instructional Methodologies Contemporary engineering education should emphasize the design process,challenge-based learning, and other engineering habits of mind (Berland, Martin, Ko, etal., 2013). The results of Berland, Martin, Ko, et al.’s (2013) study revealed that as
