engineering college students ’ conceptions of electricity.In the present study, we adopted the Electricity Conception Test (ECT) developed by Bilal andFrol2 as the instrument to understand the engineering college students ’ conceptions of electricity.The ECT consisting of eight sub-topics and including 23 two-tier conceptual questions wastranslated into Chinese. The researcher translated the English version of ECT into Chinese andthen it was back-translated by a bilingual professional translator. In the present study, the α valueof ECT were higher than 0.78, implying that a good internal consistency existed. Besides, anexpert panel of two science educators and two doctoral students in science education were askedto evaluate the validity of ECT. In

into a tool can make a sequence ofactions effortless, but also has the potential to prevent further developments to practice. AsWenger writes (p. 59), “… I want to preserve the connotations of excessive concreteness and projected reality that are suggested by the dictionary definition. Indeed, no abstraction, tool, or symbol actually captures in its form the practices in the context of which it contributes to an experience of meaning.”Given the noted lack of attention to variability in engineering research [10] and education [11],we expected the student participant-researchers in this study to struggle to identify the presenceand relevance of variability in their engineering coursework.

Groupwork during a Robotics Project (Fundamental)1. IntroductionOver the last decade, with the ever-increasing demand of STEM majors for the job market and theintroduction of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) [1], the need for introducing andintegrating engineering design and practices within the K-12 curriculum has risen. Accordingly,professional development programs have been seeking to prepare teachers for incorporatingengineering design concepts and various engineering practices into their curriculum. As anexample, over the last two decades, educational robotics has become increasingly popular as (i) alearning tool that is deemed to promote students learning of STEM topics and (ii) a learning objectthat can mediate student learning about

example, an original pilot item read, “I would like to learn how tomake safer cosmetics.” The engineering education experts and researchers did not find this itemto be gender neutral and removed it from the construct. They also aimed to make the engineeringattitudes section a more comprehensive measure by including items relevant to engineeringcareers requiring a Bachelor’s degree as well as those not requiring a Bachelor’s degree, liketechnologists. The team developed new questions to include words like “design,” “create,” and“imagine” as well as words like “build” and “fix.” They renamed the engineering section“Engineering and Technology” to reflect the new focus on the work of not only engineers butalso of technologists and other skilled
