Data was collected from group discussions of 423 studentsin groups of 4-7 in mechanical, civil and electrical engineering programs from sophomore tosenior levels in both technical and design courses from Norwich University, the University ofIdaho and Washington State University. The project’s theoretical proposition was that the EPSAeffectively elicits and accurately describes the content and constructs that comprise

prime breeding ground for threshold concepts.48Considering the course's characteristics, Scott and Harlow49,50 postulated the existence of severalthreshold concepts within the experience: Thevenin's Theorem, dynamic resistance/linearapproximation, phasors (including reactive power), feedback, and dependent sources. Consideringthe assertion that phasors and reactive power are proposed threshold concepts, it is perhapssurprising to see the lack of focus in work on alternating current (AC); rather, Carstensen &Bernhard19 contend that authors are focused primarily on direct current (DC). Compared to anexisting Electronics Concept Inventory,51 the authors concluded that their identification of thethreshold concepts aligned well except for
