heat is continuously transferred to the engine at a rate of 100kJ/second. What is the maximum possible rate at which the engine could possibly produce work? A) 100kJ/s B) Nearly 100kJ/s C) Significantly less than 100kJ/s”.A less conceptually based version of the same question might read: “Compute the thermal efficiency of a Carnot engine working continuously with a heat source at 300ºC and a heat sink at 25ºC.” While it is crucial that students develop an accurate understanding of engineeringconcepts, it is also true that typical lecture-based classroom instruction has been shown to have alimited impact on conceptual understanding in technical areas. For example, in a large meta-study of physics students
MKT and SRA underlines thenuanced nature of adaptive learning and faulty adaptive learning, providing valuable insightsfor educators, learners, and researchers seeking to enhance the application of metacognitiveapproaches in educational contexts. Moreover, this underscores the significance ofdeveloping both MKT and SRA for a general and vigorous approach to adopting effectivelearning approaches and academic success.AcknowledgmentThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under GrantNo. 2110769.

The currents may be either currents througha specific branch that is not an independent current source (termed branch currents), or rarely,currents through specific wires that are internal to a node (and are therefore dependent on aspecific layout), which we term non-branch currents.

Virtual Education Environment Computer-aided instruction (CAI) systems [5] were introduced as early as 1960's as a meansof assisting students outside the classroom. The first CAI programs were either computerizedversions of textbooks, or drill and practice monitors [6] that presented a student with problems andcompared the student’s responses to the pre-scored answers, and if necessary, provided the student withcanned remedial responses. Improvements were continuously made until computer-aidedinstruction systems evolved into intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) [7, 8

The study is structured around two guiding research questions thatform the framework for the extensive investigation undertaken. 1. Does Korkmaz et al.’s (2017) [4] CT scale effectively measure the underlying construct of CT in HBCU engineering students? 2. To what extent do HBCU engineering students believe that the integration of the CAVE into the curriculum enhances their CT skills relevant to engineering? The paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, the problem statement is presented. Section3 offers a background on immersive technology and CT in engineering education.
