Examples of this can be seen in theconceptual frameworks presented below. Student 1’s perception of the stages of designbecame much more balanced in the post task model, with the student placing emphasis on allstages of design and a more equal importance placed on each stage. Comparatively, student12 placed less emphasis on some stages of the design task. Post Post Figure 2: Samples of students’ pre and post models

General questions about the student’s school, year of study, major, and average number of problem sets assigned per week.2. Positive Homework Course. Questions relating to a homework experience in a STEM course that the student would describe as “positive.” a. Initial questions asked for the name of the course, and the type(s) of homework utilized in the course. The name of the professor was asked, but was optional. b. Then students were asked to rate on a scale from Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Often, to All of the Time, the amount to which they felt
