Students were asked to analyze the given circuit to identify thepossible reason(s) why the output waveform was distorted (the lower half was cut-off).Since the modality, the student population, and the challenge questions were different in the Fall2019 and Spring 2020 semesters due to the ongoing pandemic, a direct comparison of theassessment results cannot be made. However, assessment results for both modes reflect somecommon areas of improvement and provides a qualitative understanding of the student skilllevels in this course.

is seen either via the lens of structural componentpresence/absence or via their thought process (content, discursiveness and reflectivity). Thisleads to the observation that students focus on articulating the claim rather than justification ofthe claim. Seah and Magana (2019) note that student arguments were not supported by sufficientor quality evidence to justify their design choices in Information Technology.IMPLICATIONSThese findings have implications for future research, for the development of instructionalmaterials for engineering classrooms, and for undergraduate engineering degree programs. Asengineering educators and researchers begin to explore this topic, they have many lessons tolearn from the extant research in science and math

This was done by subtracting students’ post-course ratings from their pre-courseratings. An ANOVA to compare courses was then run on the difference scores. This is done sothat any differences found better reflect actual differences between courses rather than inflateddifferences due to the unequal starting point.

IntroductionFor some time, there has been a growing concern about the future of the United States in terms Page 13.1287.2of new discoveries and inventions. One of the people leading this battle cry is Professor Romer,“a big-name Stanford University economist.”1 He argues that discoveries don’t simply appearwhen inspiration strikes, but reflect the effort put into innovating. The bottom line for thisconcern is that the number of undergraduate engineering degrees being earned in the UnitedStates has been declining since 1996

This mechanism reduces the cognitive load of storing information and allows for greaterinformation processing capacity.When engaging in problem solving, experts have been shown to participate in systematic real-time “reasonability” checks, contrasted with novices who proceed to the end without taking timeto reflect [67]. This behavior of expert problem-solvers perfectly aligns with our definition ofengineering intuition as the ability to assess solutions. In real-world engineering, ill-definedproblems are of particular interest. Studies have shown that ill-defined problems are often notsolved systematically, but rather through reactionary, intuitive processes to navigate thedecisions of problem-solving [68].Motivation
