Most prominent is “school climate,” which is generally described as thequality and character of school life and reflects the norms, goals, values, interpersonalrelationships, teaching and learning practices, and organizational structures that shape the qualityand character of a school[22]. A recent literature review recognized no less than six theoreticalframeworks that inform research and speak to its multi-dimensionality[23]. All six developmentaltheories stress the importance of strong social bonds between teachers and students.Relevant refers to students’ experience of learning, “relatedness” with their teachers, and

The weighted average scores for Fall 2021 andWinter 2022 are 3.03 and 2.93. Up to Winter 2022, the in-person class with hybrid resources had, to some extent, normaldistribution whereas the class fully online had non-normal distribution; but the mean value didnot deviate significantly.

Student responses to open ended questions indicate they are able to grasp someconcepts of vibration analysis using FEA as an analysis tool.IntroductionIt is understood that undesirable vibrations in mechanical structures can potentially lead toexcessive deflections and system failures. When the natural frequency of vibration of a structurecoincides with the natural frequency of excitation, resonance occurs, leading to excessivedisplacements [1]. These excessive displacements can cause an annoying oscillation in minorcases or can cause catastrophic failures

While focusing on one area ata time – be it asking ‘better’ questions, building rapport, identifying signs of a fixed mindset, orany other aspect of tutoring – tutors are able to incrementally improve – and share their progresswith their Elevate cohort.Finally, Elevate trains Tutor Fellows to try to “work themselves out of a job.” This is whatdifferentiates them from many other tutors. Often, tutors will answer questions directly. Theywill explain things as magic… out of thin air. Elevate attempts to minimize the distribution of“magic beans” because each time they are gifted, the student becomes more dependent on thetutor – which is the opposite of what should be sought.

Furthermore, a common critique regarding virtual labsrefers to the use of idealized data that usually does not reflect the uncertainties and nuances ofthe real world [10].
