The habits of mind framework used to guidethis study was first published in the Project 2061 initiative led by the American Association forthe Advancement of Science (AAAS) and further developed by the National Academy ofEngineering (NAE). This exploratory work was guided by the following question: What habits ofmind do undergraduate electrical engineering students use when answering conceptualquestions about electric current? The data for this study were student interviews conductedusing a think aloud protocol. The questions on the protocol were aimed at uncovering students’conceptual knowledge and possible misconceptions about basic circuit concepts.
