Abstract :
A new model of metacognition scaffolding, Metacognition in the Engineering Design Process (MCinEDP), which parallels instruction in engineering design processes (EDP), has been designed for use in pre-college, particularly 2-6, engineering classrooms. MCinEDP utilizes engineering as the context for implementation of metacognitive activities that are designed to aid students in building mastery of metacognition and to improve specific abilities in engineering design. This paper outlines the design process in order to reveal the intersection of instructional design theory, instructional design models, cognitive theory and learning theory that supported this project.
