For students who have misconceptions, replacing those notions with the correct scientificconcept presented in the classroom may be a difficult process. At best, all that educators can dois minimize incorrect thoughts by making stronger the associations amongst the correct ones.In light of the difficulties related to effectively teaching threshold concepts, several members ofthe engineering education community have begun working on ways to improve student learningin these areas.

, they do not necessarily have the time to make the high levels of coordination that many university and industry engagement initiatives require. Industry engineers also have problems with the availability of time, especially during the workday - for example, it is difficult for many to devote half a day to an activity as a workshop for trainees. Often there is no money available to develop the types of initiatives that are likely to have the greatest impact. Even when funding is available to establish a new initiative, long-term financial sustainability remains problem.

as they progress in their work.First, we identify the engineering epistemic practices in which students engage in the laboratory activity.Engineering epistemic practices are the socially organized and interactionally accomplished ways inwhich engineers develop, justify, and communicate ideas when completing engineering work(Cunningham & Kelly, 2017; Kelly, 2008). Epistemic practices can be divided into three categories:material, conceptual, and social (Chindanon & Koretsky, 2023; Koretsky et al., 2023; Pickering, 1996).Material practices refer to interactions with the material world, such as through observation,measurement, and production of design artifacts (Bogen & Woodward, 1988; Furtak & Penuel, 2019).Conceptual epistemic
