students’ peer interaction during collaborative work sessions.Understanding social processes through which young students learn to engage in collaborativeengineering design projects is critical as engineering standards become prevalent in K-12curriculums. The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) require that students not onlyunderstand core concepts and cross-cutting ideas associated with engineering, but also learn toparticipate in engineering practices.1-3 According to the NGSS, engineering practices are highlysocial, requiring collaboration and communication with diverse people for multiple purposes.Although it is well-known that communication plays critical roles in the design process4, 5,systematic studies of children’s peer-to-peer

Our analysis resulted in three key findings. First, studentsoften did not see themselves as creative. Second, they avoided creative solutions that were notimmediately feasible. Third, they limited themselves to familiar tasks that aligned with theiracademic discipline. Interview responses indicated that these behaviors represented responses toconstrained project and educational environments as well as technical and feasibility orientationsdeveloped in school.
