The Marginalized Identities of Sense-makers: Reframing Engineering Student Retention
Brian A. Danielak, Ayush Gupta, Andrew Elby
This paper empirically argues for a closer examination of what we wish to retain when we speak of "retention" in engineering [1]. We present and interpret data from clinical interv…
Beyond deficit-based models of learners' cognition: Interpreting engineering students' difficulties with sense-making in terms of fine-grained epistemological and conceptual dynamics
Ayush Gupta, Andy Elby
Researchers have argued against deficit-based explanations of students' troubles with mathematical sense-making, pointing instead to factors such as epistemology: students' beliefs…
Understanding students' difficulties in terms of coupled epistemological and affective dynamics
Ayush Gupta, Brian A. Danielak, Andrew Elby
An established body of literature shows that a student's affect can be linked to her epistemological stance [1]. In this literature, the epistemology is generally taken as a belief…
Incorporating Affect in an Engineering Student's Epistemological Dynamics
Brian A. Danielak, Ayush Gupta, Andrew Elby
Research has linked a student's affect to her epistemology (Boaler & Greeno, 2000), but those constructs often apply broadly to a discipline and/or classroom culture. Independently…
Beyond epistemological deficits: Incorporating flexible epistemological views into fine-grained cognitive dynamics
Ayush Gupta, Andrew Elby
Researchers have argued against deficit-based explanations of students' troubles with mathematical sense-making, pointing instead to factors such as epistemology: students' beliefs…
