, to describe physical phenomena.The Physics II practices aim to leverage the benefits of PBL, which include promoting activelearning, and providing opportunities for teamwork, investigation, problem-solving,communication, and data management [2]. However, it is questioned whether the PBLmethodology could be more efficient in the teaching-learning process in the context of theeducational institution in question. A key aspect of PBL is realism or contextualization. To betterfit into PBL, the projects must involve authentic problems that are observed in practice. Do theproposed challenges involve concepts that students can relate to real-world Engineering?Integrating these projects into the context of the specific areas of Engineering that

requires targeted and theoretically informedapproaches to teaching [5, 6].Different from other disciplines, engineering requires students to integrate foundational scientificprinciples, technological innovation, and computational reasoning to address complex andill-defined real-world problems. This combination makes misconceptions particularlyproblematic in engineering contexts as conceptual misconceptions may not be evident whenstudents are calculating values, but rather emerge when reasoning about a problem conceptually[7, 8, 9]. In addition, errors in basic physics can lead to flawed assumptions in technology anddesign reasoning [10]. Misconceptions in science like physics, such as those assessed in the ForceConcept Inventory (FCI), are not
