CSEdResearch.org 1 adrienne@buffalo.edu, 2 monica@csedresearch.orgAbstractWe recently hosted a workshop that brought together 12 K-8 teachers who teach computer science(CS) and/or computational thinking and 12 CS education researchers. Since there is a known gapbetween practices that researchers study and practices that teachers implement in a learningenvironment, the purpose of our full-day workshop was to create a meaningful space for teachersand researchers to meet and explore each others’ perspectives. The dialogue was framed aroundteachers’ classroom experiences with researchers reflecting on how they could improve theirresearch practice. The workshop, held during the 2022 CS Teachers Association (CSTA)conference

abilities to inform career decisions [10]. Strong evidence suggests the importance ofidentity formation through experiential education; however, there are many questions that stillremain unanswered about how engineering programs can help create pathways for students tomeaningfully participate and develop professional identity, especially at scale.While experiential learning and engineering identity formation are important to the collegeexperience, challenges remain for creating robust structures for students to reflect, conceptualize,and apply their learning. Kolb [13] recognized that the experiences themselves are not enough.His model describes a cyclical process that begins with a concrete experience, followed byreflection on that experience

The course exploredengineering mechanics and design topics concurrent with applying physics topics in anengineering laboratory. A qualitative analysis was performed using a new reflective tool,PhotoVoice. The purpose of the assessment was to better understand the impact of the course onthe student vision, the operation of the course relative to what they have encountered in theireducational careers, and student-perceived learning outcomes. Analysis of student reflectionsrevealed themes of “Changed Perspectives,” “Engagement in the Classroom,” and“Brainstorming Benefits” when describing the impact of the course on their career visions

While these skills areimportant for engineering students to master, learning them outside of any specific applicationwas not as engaging or as applicable for students. Furthermore, the content and delivery formatof the course did not allow for much “face-time” to cover the topics in enough detail or withopportunities for exploration or application in context. In addition, students conductedassignments individually, with minimal collaboration. Assessments were memorization basedusing multiple choice questions and with not much opportunity for reflection.

In an un-gradingstructure, both instructors and students participate in holistic reflection and assessmentthroughout the course. Proponents of un-grading often note that success outside of the classroomdepends not only on development of knowledge and skills, but also behaviors and practices.Therefore, an un-grading approach often does include assessment of things like participation inclass or timeliness. This holistic approach recognizes that different students have different goalsand interests and makes pathways to success that support the intrinsic motivation of students.A challenge of alternative grading is balancing both structure and nuance

However, given that the students are in their first year, we assume that they remain at anearly stage of professional socialization.
