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
