If the results are too far from the target, they are encouraged to reformulate theirquery and generate new code. This encourages the students to better understand the systeminstead of making random changes.

Consequently, student learningin design is hampered.The intent of this study was to identify preconceptions students bring to design and to framethem in terms of the cognitive literature. The preconceptions were explored using two sequentialfocus group discussions based on the questions, “What did you learn about design?” and “Whatdid you need to un-learn to do design?”The participants in this study had completed an intermediate level design class. The class usedmultiple design-build-test projects supported by lectures to teach design.
