However, determining the appropriate size ofeach conceptual unit depends on factors such as the learners' aptitude and experience.In this paper, we present a data-driven approach to designing auto-graded activities in our online,interactive STEM textbooks, focusing on effectively breaking down complex concepts intosmaller, more achievable steps for learners. We analyzed two types of activities: 1) activities onchallenging topics as reflected by high struggle rates and 2) activities on introductory topics withlower struggle rates, but where students still needed assistance based on their feedback andincorrect submissions as they began learning programming

actively affirm the many unique identities andbackgrounds present. This includes acknowledging their own positionality, both in relation to theacademy and the profession. Affirming students’ identities and the associated subjectiveexperiences can be as simple as allowing students to share something about their backgrounds,and having the class collectively reflect upon it. Another idea is for faculty to reimagine theirrole in providing feedback. Design pedagogy often positions the professor as the all-knowingexpert, but the faculty member can also create classroom scenarios to facilitate peer feedback oruse other creative approaches to break down hierarchies.A recent study found that design instructors use juries and critique to uphold what they

If the Ideator is not contributing anyfurther effort, and the entire commercialization process is going to be managed by the other twopartners, then the allocation of ownership should reflect that ongoing contribution. In this scenarioownership of the company may then shift to 10% to the Ideator and 45% to the other two originalmembers of the group.Second, even if all partners are proceeding equally with continued effort toward commercialization, byallocating 100% of ownership they do not create any reserve of interest to allow for onboarding of futureinvestors or other needed skillsets not present in the current partnership.Another variation of not planning for expansion occurred in

ecosystem model presents a holistic perspective,viewing education as an interconnected system where multiple factors influence student success.Instead of assuming a fixed route, the ecosystem model accounts for both bottom-up and top-downinteractions that shape student experiences. Bottom-up interactions reflect students’ choices,engagement with their institutions, and interactions within their networks. Top-down interactionsinclude institutional structures and policies, both formal and informal, that influence studentmigration, retention, and overall experiences [10, 11].By situating students within an ecosystem, this approach helps institutions identify patterns ofstudent progression, better understand the diverse experiences of non-traditional

Notably, cumulative GPA exhibits thestrongest correlation with ECE 301 performance. In contrast, the relationship between students’high school information (e.g., SAT Math scores and AP count) and ECE 301 is weaker. This is un-surprising, as high school academic information is temporally distant from ECE 301 and reflects amore basic level of knowledge. Consistent with this, subsequent feature importance analyses (Fig-ures 6 and 8) confirm that these two high school features are among the least influential predictorsof ECE 301 performance.Prediction and AnalysisFor this analysis, we sampled students with

The TPI was initially designed tocover a broader range of STEM teaching practices in a time-effective way [14], and this time-effective characteristic of the TPI can be the reason for its wide application in STEM highereducation teaching practices assessment research. Considering that time is frequently reported asone of the most essential resources for faculty [15], identifying an instrument that provides aquick determination of STEM teaching practices can be critical to implementing an assessmentinvestigation.
