for Engineering Education, 2016 Challenges and Benefits of Introducing a Science and Engineering Fair in High-Needs Schools (Work in Progress) Science and Engineering (S&E) Fairs are a valuable educational activity that are believedto increase students’ engagement and learning in science and engineering by emphasizingcreativity and inquiry-focused learning.1,2 However, S&E Fairs put demands on teachers,parents, and students for time and resources.3,4 Organizing such an event is especially demandingin the first few years of implementation. As a result, poor and low-achieving schools are lesslikely to implement such a program for their students, despite the potential benefits 1,3,4. Ourstudy is based on data

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.

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).

. To circumvent this, educators oftenrequire at least three unique design concepts. Ideally, during iteration, additional concepts arebrainstormed based on initial test results. Figure 3: EDP Log, IdeateOn the Evaluate tab, the design descriptions auto-populate from the Ideate tab, along with thedesign requirements. Students are then asked to predict whether or not each concept is likely orunlikely to meet each of the requirements. These are just beliefs or predictions, but they shouldbe used to help the students to decide which concept(s) are most promising for furtherdevelopment and prototyping. When a student enters an ‘L’ for likely or a ‘U’ for unlikely, thegray cells turn green or red, respectively
