In theILT course, elementary PSTs worked collaboratively to find the most efficient path usingprogramming block-based languages and robotics. When they encountered issues, elementaryPSTs engaged in debugging as part of testing and improving their path solutions with the help ofthe instructors and their peers.Methods This work in progress is from a larger study that utilizes a design-based researchapproach [19]. Design-based research is still a relevant approach in educational research (see[20]) as it allows for iterative cycles of (re)design, implementation, and analysis to better employresearch-based pedagogy into practice, which in turn can inform

Her graduate training in science andtechnology studies and human-centered design prepared her to see that these forms ofcontextualization are much more nuanced than using particular language, but this varyinglanguage fundamentally changes the engineering pedagogy in practice. She continues tointerrogate why and how engineering educators learn from other disciplines to explicitlyprioritize contextualization.For Dr. Kari Zacharias, this project has been an opportunity to reflect on the
