” by Young and Freedman[24]. Students of the course also attended weekly laboratory sessions where “Tutorials inIntroductory Physics” by McDermott and Schaffer [25] was used extensively. All courseactivities, including the tests, were conducted in Spanish.The E&M course uses active learning for instruction [26]. During the semester, besides the useof Tutorials, a very successful teaching strategy created by McDermott, et al. [25], the instructoruses Mazur´s Peer Instruction, a conceptual-based educational strategy [11]. He also employsproblem-solving activities using collaborative learning, conceptual building activities such asTasks Inspired by Physics Education Research (TIPER) [27] and educational technologies suchas Interactive

or science majors—registration of non-electrical engineers is unusual. Theclass is offered in the winter term and for the past three years, the period over which the QMCSinstrument was administered, the enrollment averaged 8 students per term; typically, one of thosestudents was female. The prerequisite for the course is successful completion of one year ofcalculus-based general physics with the associated laboratories. The typical student hascompleted a course in differential equations with linear algebra. Engineering students areintroduced to MATLAB [2] during their freshman year. We leverage this knowledge of theMATLAB environment along with their experience with linear algebra to manipulate vectors andmatrices—the original language of
