Addressing this problem may involve reconsideration of the basic structure of engineering departments and the infrastructure for evaluating the performance of professors as much as it does selecting the coursework students should be taught.The report also stressed the importance of teaching

The grounded theory approach yields themes that are formed from the grouping of codesaccording to conceptual categories that reflect commonalities among coded data.10 In this study,researchers looked for emergent themes formed from the focus group participants’ responses.This was done by looking at the transcribed recordings and notes that were taken during eachinterview session. Initial data examination was done independently by each researcher prior tocoming together to discuss the themes that were prevalent. Individual researchers reviewedcollected responses and gradually went from coding to categories, and eventually theory buildingwhich lead to the development of activity components

that instructors shouldpromote and facilitate student reflection so they become more metacognitive learners who candevelop their own expertise by defining learning goals and monitoring their own progress. Infocusing on the first principle, awareness of prior knowledge, it is critical to have an approach toreveal students' prior knowledge and understanding of a given topic in order to developimproved strategies for teaching that topic. In introductory materials science and engineeringcourses, one of the key topics to understanding the basis for the properties of materials is thetopic of crystal structures. An important aspect of instruction on crystal structures is for studentsto develop an ability to visualize two-dimensional projections of

Forinstance, many students were familiarized with certain connotations because of the way theywere taught and when the interaction with the scientific language was suddenly changed, it wasdifficult for students to recognize and detect what the question wanted them to reflect on.

A number of students choose professionalism as their papertopics, and, as the paper is due about two weeks after the activity, they have had enough time toformulate relatively coherent responses, which tend to represent an emotional gamut.Some students enter the class with very rigid notions of right and wrong—more than a few rootedin Christian fundamentalism—and evidence anger when
