The first objective of this study is to explore theengineering epistemological beliefs among students in introductory engineering courses, using aunique methodological approach, Q methodology. The second objective is to examine whethersuch epistemological beliefs are related to student academic outcomes among first yearengineering students.This study focuses on students in introductory engineering courses for two reasons. First,introductory STEM (including engineering) courses are often large, posing difficulties forinstructors and students to closely examine and discuss concepts and knowledge covered in thecourses. Students’ epistemological views in these courses can be potentially used to relate tostudents’ course performances

and rThis topic introduces students to sequential circuits, typically covered during the first half of thesemester. An SR latch is the simplest circuit that stores 1-bit. A timing diagram is a commonway to analyze the inputs and outputs of such a circuit. The objective of this activity is tofamiliarize the students with the workings of an SR latch. This is done with a timing diagram asin Figure 2. This activity has two levels of progression with equal difficulty. Each level presentsa randomly-generated combinations of s and r, and the student needs to input the corresponding qfor each combination of s and r, as in Figure 2(a). Clicking a square in q toggles between 1 and 0values. When a student submits, the activity compares the student's q
