. Andonce again, the initial level of confidence in one’s own response was very high (40%)which then increased to over half (61%). DiscussionThe consistency of the comparisons across the two approaches is gratifying, as itsuggests the existence of a real phenomenon that is hinted at in two different ways. Thelevels of the responses and the differences are similar, which suggests to us that studentknowledge about engineering is changing due to the introduction of THE PROJECT. Torefer to Figure 1, comparisons A and B appear to be similar. Most of these apparentchanges, however, appear to be informational rather than aspirational. That is, after oneyear of SABES, there appears to be convincing evidence that
