To produce a reasonable population-level estimate of targeting rate among practicingengineers, we must recruit a representative sample and deploy a scalable survey instrument.While we have future plans for such sampling, Study 2 was designed to begin development ofthis instrument.Study 2: Mixed-methods Study of Student EngineersThis study was conducted under a protocol approved by Brandeis University’s IRB, number#23053R-E.

Finally,metacognition, or ‘thinking about thinking,’ has an impact on the development of modelingstrategies of students, when the impacts of four metacognitive dimensions are considered:awareness, planning, cognitive strategy and self-checking. Students who are better at self-checking show higher growth in their modeling abilities over the course of a year, compared tostudents who are less proficient at self-checking. The growth in modeling abilities is also moder-ated by the cognitive strategy and planning skills of the student. After some experience
