Finally, we used a Q-matrix to documentthe mapping between item answers (correct and incorrect) with the normative concepts andmisconceptions specified in our evolving domain model.Examples of Redesign ProcessesQ-matrixTo provide more detail, we walk through examples of some of these critical redesign processes.First, one product that

For a total of 40 questions in 10 categories, average scores andstandard deviations were calculated for individual questions and also for each category. The resultsare summarized in Table 1 where the survey categories are labeled by Roman numerals andindividual questions are sequentially labeled with a prefix Q. The average and standard deviationfor “Overall” are for the category. For a comparison between the results from the twoquestionnaires, the averages and standard deviations were presented in two sets of columns,denoted by “Perception” (questionnaire 1) and “Achievement” (questionnaire 2).

participants considered themselves to be familiar with these issuesto some extent but not to a level of “very familiar”. Adams et al.7 made a similar observationthat engineering faculty face difficulty with education research because of the differences indisciplinary language and the use of qualitative data in education research. Choosing anappropriate conceptual framework for education research (Q 1.5) was rated the lowest. Thisconforms to Borrego’s13 finding that when learning educational research methods, groundingresearch in a theoretical framework is among the conceptual issues that engineering faculty findless familiar. As Borrego observes, the scientific and engineering theories these faculty use areuniversal and often do not need to be

CoworkersAs with managers, new engineers at every company reported varying degrees of help from thecoworkers. Many participants said that their coworkers helped them understand what is expectedof them and helped them accomplish their work. Other participants said that their coworkerswere too busy or too new to the work group to provide much help. Q: Did your [coworker] give you this assignment? A: Yes. Q: I assume he gave you background information? A: Yes and no. We both were new to this [name] system, so we pretty much were on the same page in terms of understanding the system. So it was like we both learned it at the same time. I found some information, I talked to him about it, he found some more information

Hands-on Effect on MotivationAll nine experiments on motivation reported a positive hands-on effect size ranging from0.19 to 0.90. Using the random effect model, the overall mean effect size was moderate andstatistically significant (d = 0.52, p = 0.05), indicating a positive hands-on effect onmotivation. The heterogeneity statistic was highly significant, Q = 15.76, df = 8, p = 0.05.This result shows that the hands-on learning effect had a significant positive impact onstudent motivation.

discussion forums, including social question and answer (Q&A) sites, arebecoming increasingly popular for problem-solving and help-asking. Users of these sites askquestions, post responses, or search information from existing threads to satisfy theirinformational needs. One popular use of online discussion forums is to provide help witheducational content [26]. Research shows that online forums are robust platforms for learning 1as they evolve over time and become a rich source of information for participants due to theinterpersonal exchange they.

Bothhad attended the special meeting we held in the spring of 2017 and had participated in theclassroom observation opportunity, and one of them had also participated in one-on-onemeetings with math faculty (Q.4). In both cases, these meetings only changed their perceptionson faculty engagement (Q.5). The interaction that was listed as being the most impactful was themeeting/classroom observation, but the one-on-one visits also ranked high on the list (Q.6). Itdoes seem, though, that building in opportunities for faculty socialization and active exchange ofideas is important.Questions 8: Have you provided feedback or input

pattern was distinguished by the phrase “I feel” as well as the word“just.” The use of “just” seemed to reference an innate feeling the student had about theirattitudes and beliefs, rather than a specific affinity towards some trait such as creativity or actionsuch as problem solving. Students expressed two kinds of emotional responses to belongingness:comfort and enjoyment. An excerpt from Candace’s interview transcript is an example ofstudents’ comfort towards being in engineering. Q: Do you feel like you belong in engineering? Candace: Yes. I don't know, I've just never felt like I wasn't in the right place or I wasn't- I guess I've never felt like I didn't belong, so I don't know why I feel like I do belong, but

Typically, each segment had about four TPSR activities with a fewshorter ones included to break the routine. The format allotted six minutes for eachTPSR activity. Usually, two Q&A sessions were included in each segment with one inthe middle and one at the end. Since the presenter had no control once a TPSR activitywas initiated and could not react to question or provide guidance, the task statementsneeded to be clear and precise and describe challenging but doable tasks that fit withinthe time constraints.

their early experiences leading to the Bridge program. The secondinterview explored their experiences in the Bridge program and their aspirations for their co-op.Interviews were professionally transcribed and pseudonymized.Data were analyzed using a narrative approach that includes multiple readings [19]. Themultistep process included reading for: familiarization with the transcripts, identifying contentsuch as individuals mentioned and major storylines, detecting identity of the participant andothers, and uses of CCW and funds of knowledge. After the readings, a narrative case waswritten for each participant.Quality was considered internally and externally. Internally, we used the Q 3 framework [20],[21] as a reflexive tool to guide each phase
