the difficulty. Students are faced with numerous new abstract ideas that they have to master in a short time. This fast bombardment does not allow students to fully understand and internalize certain concepts, before new ones are introduced. This accumulation process causes students’ frustration and dissatisfaction, if not total loss. 3. The timing at which the numerous new concepts are introduced is another contributing factor to conceptual difficulties. Typically, a high concentration of abstract concepts are jammed in the first few weeks of a first-semester course in thermodynamics. This is basically ‘starting on the wrong foot’. 4. Lack of an orienting basis

To truly learn, students must master engineeringconcepts, not simply memorize facts and correctly choose and apply formulas3-5.In order to progress through the engineering curriculum, it is imperative that students have astrong conceptual understanding of the material. This understanding serves as a framework thatstudents can use to organize new information and facts; otherwise, their learning will consist of aloose assortment of new facts and knowledge (which is much more easily forgotten). Whilethese students can often solve problems similar to what they have seen (typically throughalgorithmic substitution), it is much more difficult for them to transfer their new knowledge

Theory and practice must be in union when mastering these skills. “Playing acomplete game” means putting these skills together (either virtually in a computer simulation orphysically with hardware) to create a system to solve a problem.
