], 60% of students in engineering drop out or change their major in the firstyear, due to a gateway course known as Circuit Analysis (Network Theory). Murata [3]suggested that a lack of metacognitive skill could account for learners’ inability to reachcorrect answers in spite of basic knowledge mastery of circuit theory. Scaffolding assists inincreasing metacognitive performance by providing direction to cognitive strategies throughstrategic support for students as subject mastery increases [4]. Learning scaffolds are instructionalguides or prompts provided during problem-solving that attempts to close the gap between anovice learners’ current state of understanding and an experts’ body of domain-related knowledge[5].

The other two were neutral.Theoretical FrameworkThe theoretical framework for this was based on situated cognition theory and constructivism.Situated cognition theory suggests that knowledge is a matter of competence related to a valuedenterprise and that knowing is a matter of participating in the pursuit of such enterprises1.Meaning therefore is the ability to experience the world and have a meaningful engagement intoit. Ultimately, this is what learning is to produce. The purpose of this in-class activity was for thestudents to have a meaningful engagement of their prior learning toward a real world experience.Two main attributes of this theory were used in the design of the in class demonstration:anchored instruction and

knowledge gainedfrom previous courses and start to create realistic solutions. To be effective, instructors need to present theirconcepts across a broad front so students can receive the information through many different avenues. Because ofthis, students in some programs take a learning style inventory, a system originally presented by R.M. Felder andL.K. Silverman [2]. From these evaluations, the vast majority of engineering students are visual learners—theylearn best when they can see with their mind’s eye what is being described in a lecture.Instructors should always try to represent concepts in 2-D drawings during their lectures, but experience has shownthat supplementing drawings with physical models is essential.
