While the results of these tests may not behigh stakes in terms of sanctions on a school, district or individual teacher, they certainly havehigh stakes for the students as their scores determine whether or not they will graduate from highschool. As a result, there is an ongoing tension between STEM-related reforms, often initiated byfederal agencies and universities, and test preparation practices K-12 educators perceive willresult in higher scores on standardized tests. To further complicate matters, standardized testsconsist of largely multiple choice questions and are therefore not necessarily reliable indicatorsof students’ reasoning and problem solving skills (Burkhardt, 2012).

There is no specific language in either which statesthat design must be a component of all, or even the majority of classes in a curriculum. Thereare, however, two primary reasons to include a design component in the majority of engineeringscience classes: design provides a necessary link from theoretical material to its application inthe real world, and design presents a clear avenue for achieving additional student learning ob-jectives beyond the development of analytical skills and basic engineering knowledge.
