computational competencies throughout the engineeringcurricula by integrating problems of disciplinary engineering practice.CPACE Project Overview Page 24.1268.2 The CPACE project is divided in two phases, CPACE I and II. During CPACE I we: a)identified the computational competencies needed in the engineering workplace; b) developed a‘data-to-computer science (CS)-concept map’ to translate our research findings into fundamentalCS concepts that can be used in curricular implementation. Our results are consistent with otherresearch on engineering education13, 14 and details of the process and findings from CPACE I arepresented elsewhere15, 16.CPACE I

Q3 My questions are answered (a) quickly / (b) clearly / (c) completely / (d) by the (a-d) instructor or TA.  Similarly, validation and investigation of the results of Q4, the help-seeking construct, showedthat the questions about contacting an expert personally could be collapsed because we didn’tactually need to distinguish between the instructor and TA, or between email and telephone.

A solution to a logic designproblem must be imagined before it can be implemented. Creativity takes time and effort todevelop. With sufficient experience, students who design logic circuits can become quiteproficient in it (this often occurs only after graduation). In a classroom environment, however,teaching creativity is challenging. We believe that, with specific techniques, it is possible toencourage its development in such a way that students are able to design, implement and testsolutions to more
