Nepantla is the state where perspectives about family,economy, society, and education among others come into conflict. “These are moments ofcritical awareness, when someone starts to see things from different and new perspectives” (p.135).12 Thus, through this sociocultural framework, Latinx adolescents can be

the “nature of recursive social practices that help usconceive both stability and change” [p. 302]. Lastly, student agency has been defined as “the waysstudents develop personally through engagement with knowledge” [24]. This characterization ofstudent agency is similar to Svihla et al. [21]. Both studies focused on students developing agencyas an integral piece for navigating pathways into their career as an engineer.Along with varying theoretical underpinnings of agential frameworks, multiple approaches wereused to investigate student learning, such as a multiple case study, narrative analysis, andphenomenography. The narrative analysis conducted by Case [23] highlighted how the studentsfelt constrained by the curriculum, which in turn

This protocol focuses on the instructor, including tracking questionsand responses, transitions from one activity to another, physical movement and the set up of theclassroom space, which is appealing. However, there is no provision for the coding of tool use inthis protocol [31]. Subsequently, the Classroom Observation Protocol for Engineering Design(COPED) was designed to evaluate engineering design curriculum integration in K-12classrooms [32]. The authors focus their protocol on emphasizing engineering design processesand habits of mind. The COPED is an incremental protocol designed to observe one aspect ofengineering education in K-12 classes. Wheeler [32] states that other protocols

Similar to the Lorenz system example, Hilpert and colleagues (2013, 2014) have used differentialequation modeling to produce simulations of how students plan for a future career in engineering as theyenter young adulthood. Their work is an example of how dynamic modeling can be used to examinestudents planning, self-regulation, and problem solving. They integrate interviews, surveys, and studentdrawings of timelines of their lives to produce dynamic models for how students’ goals shift with regardto 1) what they value in the future
