The first instanceof EBR stated by Sean was also coded functionality because he explicitly referred to hisknowledge that human feet would work in the snowy conditions. The second instance of EBRwas coded technology, since Samuel justified his counterargument by referring to an existingtechnology, shoes. He used his prior knowledge about existing technologies to point out a flaw inhis teammate’s argument that human feet would be the best option for the survival suit.Example related to colors and camouflageIn addition to the choice of the survival suit covering material, students also had to choose whichcolor(s) to make the exterior of their suit

We also conducted interviews with three adult program staffmembers who administered the different assessments and collected their observations andreflections about youth’s attitudes towards them. Through participant observation and a focusgroup with 8 youth employees, we studied attitudes towards self- and peer-reviews in aprofessional training program housed at the center.

There have been two surveys that haveutilized the SCCT framework in their development: the Student Attitudes toward STEM (S-STEM; Unfried, Faber, Stanhope, & Wiebe, 2015) and the STEM Career Interest Survey(STEM-CIS; Kier, Blanchard, Osborne, & Albert, 2013).

It is alsocomprehensive because the goal is to improve academic achievement while helping studentsmaintain their identity, connect to their communities, develop a sense of shared responsibility,share their “sensibilities,” and develop critical consciousness. Through a rasquache approach,students will see themselves and their communities in a curriculum that is empowering,transformative, and liberating. The goal would be to replace individualistic perspectives withmore cooperative and active roles from the students and teachers.References[1] J. S. Passel, D. V. Cohn, and M. H.

addition of engineeringcontent and practices to NGSS does not add additional requirements to the science standardsalready being taught. Although NGSS is not adopted in Oklahoma, the new OklahomaAcademic Science Standards, OAS-S, mirror NGSS. Further, many participants stated that eventhough they did not receive any resources for teaching engineering, they were satisfied with thisbecause they did not teach engineering anyway. This reveals that teachers do not understand thescience standards they are required to teach as part of OAS-S, which require them to beengineering teachers. Some participants’ responses indicated that teachers held misconceptions about thedifficulty or nature of engineering. For example, a few participants mentioned

the early 2000’s, but the problems were often posed as already defined tasks, that while open-ended in possible solutions, provided the students all of the outside information that they need to develop the model. In practice, we have found that when working on MEAs, students often misunderstand the problem or the client’s needs and wants early in the problem-solving cycle. The three activities presented here are MEAs that have been modified to better scaffold the problem-defining phase of the design cycle and to support students in developing problem-scoping skills.

We used twoseparate Likert scales with scores between 1 to 10 to determine the weights and assess the performancelevel, respectively, of each criterion through teacher surveys. We conducted the surveys at the end of eachweek (iteration), determined the objective function value, analyzed the outcomes, and took necessaryactions to enhance the objective function value in the next iteration(s). Here, the objective function valuecomputed in an iteration indicates the overall performance of that iteration. For the selected KPIs, weights,and scales, the maximum possible objective function value was 1,200. We assume that the objectivefunction value is the targeted
