Sensemaking often arises from puzzling or unexpected moments in the learning process, which challenge students' existing ideas, prompting them to reason with new ideas and to problem-solve. In engineering design, students often encounter these challenges when designing solutions to real-world problems through iterative prototyping, testing, and improvement. Discover how engineering design constraints can be crafted to encourage students to engage in sensemaking throughout the design process in order to bridge the gap between scientific understanding and engineering design. In this hands-on session, participants will engage in a short engineering design challenge and analyze how different design constraints shape students' engagement with science and engineering concepts. This session will provide educators with time to reflect on their own engineering instruction and anticipate how design constraints and materials can enhance student engagement in sensemaking.
