and comfort levels withthe material were more apparent. For example, on question 3, the two strongest students Page 11.325.5immediately recognized this as a conservation of energy problem. Both of these studentsdeveloped their own equations, using dimensional analysis to organize the given information.Both students displayed a solid understanding of specific heat capacity and heat transfer. The next tier of students began the problem by organizing the given into a table ordiagram. These students could also identify this as an energy balance question. With minimalprompting or clues (e.g., q = mC∆T), these students could develop a
