There is some evidence that studentsdo not readily make connections across different modal engagements. For example, in pre-college engineering classes many students struggle to integrate previously encountered geometryconcepts in activities such as computer-aided design (CAD) or measurement activities15 .Analyses of standardized tests also show that many students who take pre-college
