through project or problem-basedlearning (PBL). Most of this section of the rubric draws from the “Ensuring Equity in PBLReflection Tool”[14]. This part of the rubric examines the degree to which students are allowedto exert agency and participate in team-learning environments that reflect real-world contextsand social impacts. The rubric encourages activities that engage every student, ensuring that alleducational experiences are hands-on and relevant to students' lived experiences andsocioeconomic backgrounds.Each of these sections contains specific items, totaling 27, which describe behaviors andpractices ranging from those that perpetuate inequity to those that foster an inclusive atmosphere.For example, under the "Head" section, item 1

They had gained access to STEM as a field of study and the researcherswere interested in whether their own pathways would be reflected in the activities they weredesigning. The other stakeholder group involved in the planning year was a group of teacherswho would become the afterschool facilitators of the STEM program. Those individuals valuedSTEM and students’ access to it. As a group that provided input and feedback on the activitiesthat were being developed, the researchers were interested in how their experiences andperspectives may or may not be reflected in the afterschool

The auto-ethnographic framework also allows for analysis of thevaried interactions between factors that have influenced her interest in engineering. Additionally,a qualitative technique with an auto-ethnographic framework allows the researcher to lookdeeply into the participant's experiences, motives, and reflections. Auto-ethnography is a suitableapproach to self-reflect, bringing valuable personal views into her experience. In support of thisapproach, she relates her experience actively engaging in hands-on experiments, problem-solving, and collaborative projects. These experiences contributed significantly to her

However, the traditional approach to defining engineering that has guided engineeringpractices is insufficient because it fails to embrace these realities. Therefore, the need for a newframework that reflects these realities is overwhelming. This paper introduces a new theoreticalframework called socially transformative engineering that not only captures these missingelements but also values and incorporates the diverse perspectives and experiences of students. Inparticular, this framework draws upon the legitimation code theory and justice-centeredpedagogies and builds on three tenets (reasoning fluency

MethodologyIntroductionThis section presents the methods and procedures to answer the question, “How well can theengineering design process facilitate learning of science by middle school students?”. This is acase study of two teams from a middle school classroom that use the engineering design processas a framework for learning scientific principles. The students’ goals are to plan, design, andevaluate a decision tree process to recover, sort, and identify minerals from a lake following atrain derailment spilling the cargo of minerals.

One facet of thesolution is to broaden the computing education research corpus to include experiences of allstudents, particularly those from marginalized groups, and to adopt best practices for high-qualityresearch.Research Question: What gaps related to participants in computing education research studiesexist? How might these contribute to the lack of equity in high school computing?Methodology: Using a curated data set of research articles focused on K-12 computing education,we analyzed articles that included high school students as study participants (n = 231) todetermine which dimensions of high quality and/or equity-enabling research were included.Results: The yearly

In traditional African societies, community leaders and members gathered to discuss importantmatters, with each individual’s perspective being seen as vital to the overall survival and success of thecollective (Etta et al., 2016).

Furthermore, FACS instructors designed activities that drew on students' existingknowledge of a subject and connected with their personal experiences to create a meaningful bond withthe material and their peers. As Gay (2018) suggests, educators enhance their effectiveness by integratingtheir own and their students' previous experiences, community contexts, cultural backgrounds, and ethnicidentities into their teaching approaches.

(Hammack et al.,2024; Yeter, 2021).Teachers’ enactment of engineering-focused design principlesTeachers do not rely solely on speech during classroom instruction. They also use actions, suchas writing or drawing, and gestures. Here, we will use a definition of gestures widely adoptedwithin the educational and developmental psychology literature: movements of the hands/armsthat sometimes co-occur with speech but could also occur alone, revealing the mentalrepresentations of the speaker (Mcneill, 1992). Gestures not only reflect the thoughts of thespeaker (Hostetter & Alibali, 2008) but also have an impact on the listener’s comprehension ofthe speaker’s message (Hostetter, 2011).
