Estimator was designed as an assessment instrument. However, one of thequestions addressed in the present research is whether noticeable learning occurs betweenproblems. In other words, do students improve from one problem to the next? Since eachproblem presented in the 3D Estimator concerns the use of volume estimation, we hypothesizedthat students might be able to use the answer from previous problems as reference points. Asdescribed below, Learning Factor Analysis 4 was used to investigate this hypothesis.Floundering One of Anderson, et al.'s 14 definitions of floundering with interactive learning software isrepeating the same kind of mistake three times (p. 174).

Findings present an adapted CSP framework for SSA,comprising 11 tenets for asset-based research. They highlight CSP’s adaptability across contexts,underscoring its importance in SSA STEM education.Keywords: culturally sustaining pedagogy, asset-based education, exemplary teaching,inclusion, transferability, Sub-Saharan AfricaBackgroundResearch shows that teaching practices that are more contextual and inclusive of students’cultural backgrounds and experiences enhance students' learning [1].

Panel A of Figure 7 shows the ENA graph of the baseline strength of interconnectionsamong codes representative of students’ argumentation and negotiation in the classroom.Observations of epistemic relationships during argumentation and negotiation (red connections)show a weak CD-M correlation (r=0.16) and moderate CC-M correlation (r=0.49). This suggeststhat during argumentation and negotiation, students produced less gestures that were misalignedwith course-specific speech compared to gestures conceptually aligned with course-specificspeech. This differs from H1’s prediction that there would be a stronger correlation betweenstudents conceptually misaligned gestures and course-specific speech
