The current study contributed to the discourse on thetransformative potential of hands-on learning in the context of biology education.Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Digital Learning Lab, in one of their articles [26],conceptualized hands-on learning as a cyclical process that encompasses concrete experience,reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. A few studieshave shown how hands-on learning improves student outcomes, including motivation andengagement, conceptual knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving development.

Moreover, they used the literacies as tools for honoring the voices andexperiences of the community where they implemented their project.Our study offers implications for engineering education. Foremost, although not directly theobject of this paper, it is impossible to understand learning without considering teaching. In aphenomenographic study, Zoltowski et al.[46] argue that students’ ways of understanding andexperiencing HCD have different degrees of comprehensiveness.

Only 24% of Latino and AfricanAmerican graduates met UC/CSU requirements compared to 68% of Asians and 52% of Whites.5This preparation gap is reflected in the results of the Cañada College’s math placement tests overthe last four years.
