A memberof the AE faculty who helped create the home for the competition guided the campers through the homeand explained the team’s considerations when designing the net-zone house. Campers learned about theenergy efficiency standards in passive house designs and how they can be implemented in today's buildingenvironments.Lighting The lighting design portion of the summer camp consisted of a short interactive lecture using visualdemonstrations with Top Hat to facilitate discussion, reflection and engagement with the

Figured Worlds serves as a powerful frame for ourwork because it captures the complex influence of socially- and culturally-produced systems(i.e., figured worlds) on one’s capacity (i.e., agency) to purposefully and reflectively act withinthem. The ways we choose to – or choose not to – represent ourselves as we navigate figuredworlds, and the feedback we receive while interacting with them, serve as indicators ofidentification with social groups and their privileges [13]. For a system to be considered afigured world, it must have four characteristics: (1) historically developed through the works ofparticipants; (2) include social encounters in which participant positions matter; (3) sociallyorganized and reproduced; and (4) relate individuals to

The pre-and-post comparisonallows for contrasting student opinions in three main areas: type of instruction, teachingstrategies, and student response to the instruction. The study presents some of the laboratoryactivities' outcomes and limitations. One specific activity, the capacitor discharge experiment,will be thoroughly discussed to compare the traditional physical setup with the technology-basedversion. Findings highlight the pros and cons of the teaching method used and reflect on what hasbeen learned. It also suggests potential next steps for further improvement.Keywords: Physics laboratory course

Some of these similarities are:● Both are iterative, adaptive, and collaborative processes that help solve ill-defined and open-ended problems that are not amenable to being routinized or solved algorithmically (aka “puzzles”). The iterative and nonlinear nature of both design methodologies is reflected in the existent feedback loops. This iterative nature can also be viewed as coevolution of the problem space with the solution space. That is, as designers search for

Theydefine this concept as the realized capacity for an individual to purposefully and reflectively act(i.e., agency) on contexts containing “socially-produced, culturally-constructed activities” (i.e.,figured worlds, Holland et al., 1998, p. 40-41). As individuals iteratively interact with and withinthese figured worlds, they make meaning of themselves and form their identities.

college selection and math and science achievement.Moreover, socioeconomic status influences access to resources and experiences. Thus, somefamilies and parents must be made aware of STEM career opportunities. With this knowledge,parents can guide their children to enter a specific field, particularly in technology-related areas(Scheitle & Ecklund, 2017; Yerdelen et al., 2016). Also, religion and spirituality can influence anindividual’s likelihood of entering a STEM field. Religious people are more likely to bediscouraged from entering STEM careers, particularly physics- and biology-related fields(Scheitel & Ecklund, 2017). The findings of Scheitel and Ecklund (2017) reflect that lower levelsof interest in science and higher rates of
