work which draws from the legacy of Perry [28], Faber and Benson [26]identified students who could be termed “multiplists,” as they had moved beyond absolute,binary notions of right and wrong and acknowledged multiple perspectives. Nevertheless, thesestudents struggled to evaluate validity and justifications thoroughly, often relying on superficialor insufficient evidence. Alarming in this regard is Wise et al.’s [29] finding that mostengineering students only reach such a stage of epistemic development by their fourth year,rather than advancing to the more nuanced “evaluatist” stages (that is, adopting a moresophisticated view of knowledge and knowing processes; see [30]). When applied to engineeringjudgment, if educators aim to cultivate

As a result, the virtual modulesignificantly increased students’ interest in calculus.Despite these successes in engineering education, most VR modules discussed above [9, 10, 11,12] are based on entirely imaginary universes with artificial physics simulations developedthrough 3D game engines (e.g., Unity [13], or Unreal Engine [14]). If not well investigated, thesegame engine-based VRs are criticized for being unauthentic and unsophisticated [15]. Indeed,developing and maintaining realistic, high physical fidelity, virtual content is time-consumingand labor-intensive [16], as the developer(s) must consider multiple factors such as viewpointselection, camera movement, the realism of the virtual environment, media mode

Instead, wewant students to exercise their critical thinking to build their own debugging skills given minimaldirection. In the root-finding example, students are not told which equation(s) the autograder isusing to determine their function’s accuracy. However, students are given a list of equations toperform their own tests. It is our expectation that if the autograder says “Your bisection code isnot

There could also be investigations into whether students experience post-quiz anxiety or cognitive biases that influence their self-assessments.The pre-quiz predictions of the students tended to better at the end of the course compared to thebeginning. However, this was not the case for the post-quiz surveys. Also, the regressioncoefficient was fairly low, indicating only a small correlation. So, although there is a slight trendhere, there is little evidence to support the second hypothesis of students being better atpredictions at the end of the course.It was found that students in their early and mid 20’s tended to be the ones who underestimatedtheir abilities
