And Q2: Which ones are cognitively complex? (star) Why? To create this study’s task diagram shown in Fig. 1, we first systematically workedthrough the answers to Q1 and sorted the data into categories. Although the words used todescribe the challenging aspects of search differed slightly among participants, the top-levelcategories reflect the common themes as analyzed by the author. Following best practices for thistechnique, we made multiple passes through the data in case new insights popped out [6]. Wethen placed the final categories at the top level of the

They reflected that the transitionto online instruction led them to spend more time on the internet and allowed them to learn fromonline resources and gain better computer skills. The student believed that these skills wouldprove to be useful in the industry, saying: I was able to actually learn how to work on my own during this time and I was able to actually learn how to get stuff on my own....

Forcomprehensive, long-term learning, Kolb created a four-step model learning cycle. The steps areknown as active experimentation, reflecting observation, abstract conceptualization, and concreteexperience (doing) (using the ECP approach) as shown in Figure 2. It is anticipated that studentswill retain more information after taking courses that follow all these procedures [12, 13].Students directed through the learning cycle are also exposed to more excellent educationalopportunities and chances for individual thought and self-discovery.Fig.2 Kolb’s Learning Theory3 Methodology3.1 The Use of Experimentation and

Assuch, there are several disparities between industry expectations and educational programs.Considering the industry expectations as a baseline, this enables the identification of broad wayscurrent programs might adjust their curriculum to better prepare future technicians or engineersto enter the workforce, or to help current workers upskill for new positions in emergingautomation, robotics, and mechatronics fields as efficiently as possible. This study has several limitations that should be recognized.

[1] define team personality composition as “a team-level index ofthe personality traits within the team, reflecting the strength (or elevation) of a given trait withinthe team and/or the heterogeneity of a trait within a team”. The study states the primary reason forcreating team-level indices of personality as relating personality characteristics to team-levelcriteria without inappropriately crossing levels of analysis.Personality traits are believed to be critical attributes in team composition research.
