Thesefindings of the context-dependent nature of comprehension align well with the knowledge inpieces perspective of conceptual change, which posits that students’ conceptual knowledge is acollection of pieces that are cued depending on the context of the problem. While there is stillconsiderable debate about whether conceptual knowledge is in pieces or more monolithic [2],[7], [26], [27], we based our project on the knowledge-in-pieces perspective based on itsalignment with prior findings in the micro-level view of representations.The context-dependent nature of cognition has been

As the ICAP theory suggests, cognitive engagement is influencedby the environment in which student learning takes place. Despite educators developingcurriculum (i.e. homework, projects, writing assignments, etc.) to influence student’s out-of-classenvironment, cognitive engagement outside the classroom is rarely addressed in the literature onSTEM students. One of the unique contributions of our instrument is the measurement of cognitiveengagement in two distinct environments: inside the classroom and outside the classroom.

The CTSS course is typically prerequisite to other ECEcourses, such as digital signal processing, control systems, and communication systems. Theconcepts found in a CTSS course are among the most conceptually difficult [7-8] in a typicalECE curriculum. To that end, many attempts have

To that end, many scholars investigated the use of simulation-based instructional materials. For example, Montevechi et al.
