- W1487535338 abstract "There is an increasing diversity of educational background of students entering Level 7 programmes in engineering. As a result, students’ reasoning regarding basic electrical concepts often differs from accepted explanations. This contribution reports, analyses and reflects on the results of a multiple-choice diagnostic test to assess such understanding (developed by Engelhardt and Beichner [1] for U.S. high school and college students), taken by three cohorts of first year, Level 7, engineering students at Dublin Institute of Technology during the 2008-9 academic year. The test was taken by the students at the start of instruction in the electrical systems subject, so that the author could identify the nature of student misconceptions (in particular), allowing them to be addressed. In the contribution, the author will: · Detail some of the literature regarding the assessment of students’ understanding of basic electrical concepts; · Show the misconceptions that the test used can uncover; · Evaluate if there are significant differences between the responses of students with different educational backgrounds; in particular, if there are noticeable differences between the responses of students who have taken Physics for the Leaving Certificate (or equivalent), compared to those whose relevant prior education has finished with the Science subject at the Junior Certificate (or equivalent); · Compare data gathered in this study with that given by Engelhardt and Beichner [1] for a similar cohort of U.S. students.
