Douglas is Associate Chair, Associate Professor, and Distinguished Teaching Scholar in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Florida. His research activities are in the areas of active learning, problem solving, critical thinking, and use of qualitative methodolo- gies in engineering education. Specifically, he has published and presented work on the use of guided inquiry as an active learning technique for engineering; how critical thinking is used in practice by stu- dents; and how different epistemological stances are enacted in engineering education research. He has been involved in faculty development activities since 1998

research that confirms this belief. Indeed somework suggests that engineering graduates are ill-prepared to solve the complex problems theyencounter in the workplace [4]. Substantial work has been devoted to characterizing student andexpert problem-solving in physics [5-11] and engineering [12-14], but there are almost noagreed-upon measures of problem solving [8]. If we are to teach undergraduate students to solvecomplex, real-world problems we must be able to measure how well they are learning thenecessary skills. In this work, we describe the testing of a new assessment to measuredimensions of problem-solving in undergraduate chemical engineering courses.Much of the empirical work in problem-solving has focused on differences between experts
