marginalizedcommunities [3]. Together, QuantCrit can provide valuable broader insights on the CCW heldand used by students of minoritized populations. One example includes Perez Huber et al.’s [10]use of QuantCrit as a counter story methodology to share the occupational outcomes of Latinestudents.Our study explores the use of think-aloud methodology to provide an avenue for integrating theprinciple of Voices and Insight in survey design. Voices and Insight posits that all data issubjected to socially constructed interpretations, thus prompting researchers to reflect on howtheir beliefs and experiences shape their understanding of the data [3]. Voices and Insights alsorecognizes the importance of the knowledge and experiences held by minoritized individuals.Using

specifies eight different mathematical competencies, and defines amathematical competency as “a well-informed readiness to act appropriately in situationsinvolving a certain type of mathematical challenge” [11, p. 49, italics in original]. Thesecompetencies cover two broader capabilities: 1) asking and answering mathematical questionsand 2) working and communicating with mathematical language and tools. While competenciescan overlap in that one competency may be needed to achieve other(s), each competency isindividually distinct from the others.

difficult for someone withlittle to no science experience at this level.”“Sometimes the professor talks a little bit too fast to follow.”For Question 4, the students indicated that they were amazed or surprised in the following maincategories: rockets, orbits, space environment, and the connections to scenes in “The Martian”.In the rocket category, the main knowledge that was surprising or amazing was that most Earthatmosphere propulsions systems need air and thus do not work in space. They were alsoimpressed with how well the water rockets they built were able to fly. For the orbits category,some main recurring themes were that it was amazing how fast low Earth satellite orbits aretraveling (7.8 km/s), and how that there is still gravity in space
