Although first round ofpreliminary data does not reflect the perceived percentages, it collects the participantspreferences on the dimensions and point the research to the right direction with regardsalgorithm. Most participants deemed the application experience and design as satisfactory in itscurrent stage. More experimental data needs to be collected and analyzed before making changesto the algorithm.IV.

We developed ourscheme to define a higher-quality question to be one that requires or demonstrates higher-levelthinking to answer – such as a question about understanding how or why something happens, ora question probing extension of knowledge to a new application – as opposed to a question thatcould be answered by a simple definition, or a procedural explanation of how to complete a task.Our taxonomy was approximately hierarchical, in which

This is intriguing because thepresentation was not designed to address “Personal Enjoyment.” Rather than influencing throughcontent, the act of viewing a presentation about teaching may have sparked self-reflection in thetreatment groups

IntroductionEngineering education faces the continuous challenge of incorporating the latestresearch findings into its curriculum to ensure graduates are well-equipped totackle current and future technological challenges. Traditional methods ofcurriculum development often struggle to keep pace with the rapid advancementof technology and emerging research areas [1, 2]. Current approaches tointegrating research into engineering education primarily involve the introductionof elective courses, predetermined laboratory classes, or the occasional inclusionof term papers from existing courses. However, these methods have limitations,including insufficient coverage of new technologies and the lag in updating coursecontent to reflect the latest research developments

From the CATME webpage [6]: “The adjustment factor compares an individual student’s ratings with the average ratings of everyone in the team.
