modeling learning and reasoning processes. In particular, he is attracted to fine-grained analysis of video data both from a micro- genetic learning analysis methodology (drawing on knowledge in pieces) as well as interaction analysis methodology. He has been working on how learners’ emotions are coupled with their conceptual and epistemological reasoning. He is also interested in developing models of the dynamics of categorizations (ontological) underlying students’ reasoning in physics. Lately, he has been interested in engineering design thinking and engineering ethics education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 “Turning Away” from the Struggling Individual
