Collaborative and Disciplinary Engagement Levels of the Teams While Managing Engineering Design Uncertainties The process of managing uncertainties opens up opportunities for learners to productively engage with the content and disciplinary practices. However, the way learners manage uncertainties might play a role in their process of making intellectual progress. In this paper, we present two cases where groups of students solved an engineering design problem in teams. Using Productive Disciplinary Engagement as our analytical lens, we investigated that how does the quality of the disciplinary and collaborative engagements of the teams varied while they managed design uncertainties collaboratively. The results give valuable insights into the nature of the uncertainty management processes of the teams and what support might be required to make the process of uncertainty management productive in collaborative settings.

Exploring Faculty and Student Frameworks for Engineering Knowledge Using an Online Card Sorting Platform In this study we investigate how faculty and students think about engineering using a technique new to engineering education: card sorting. In card sorting participants sort stimuli (cards) into groups, in the process revealing how they categorize information. Here we examine how both engineering faculty (n23) and firstyear undergraduate students (n62) categorize engineering scenarios. We found engineering faculty sort based on crossdisciplinary engineering activities rather than engineering disciplines. This is a surprising result as our educational frameworks are based around disciplines, and yet they are not the primary way in which faculty think. Firstyear students, on the other hand, showed little consensus on how to sort the scenarios.  As a part of this paper we unveil an online card sorting platform Collection and Analysis of Research Data for Sorting (CARDS). CARDS allows researchers to create card sorting tasks, distribute them to participants for remote data collection, and analyze quantitative results.
