Indeed, of three keyfindings in the National Research Council’s study on how people learn [1], the first finding is theneed to draw out and engage student preconceptions and the second finding highlights the needfor students to understand facts and ideas in the context of a conceptual framework. In short,meaningful learning in science and engineering requires that students master

. In contrast, disciplines like Civil Engineering are required to have less acceptance ofuncertainty because of the type of work they do [40], [41]. There are is no room for leaving thingsuncertain when designing a building for example. Understanding this is important when trainingstudents on how to collaborate with other engineers. For students with high acceptance ofuncertainty is important to understand that engineers from other disciplines might not becomfortable with not having a clear plan. It is important that they understand how to structure theiracceptance to uncertainty by developing some structured working plans that include deadlines,responsible, and expected solutions for example.Similarly, another dimension that presented
