The observations made on this paper are based on our multiple years ofexperience in teaching the topics as well as several informal discussions with professors in otheruniversities. It appears that some students miss the basic understanding that a controller (whetheranalog or digital) represents a transfer function (in the S-Domain or the Z-Domain) or adifferential/difference equation so that, together with the dynamics of the plant and the rest of thesystem, it allows for desired closed loop behavior.This problem can be partially alleviated during laboratory experiments when students notice thata controller’s transfer function in the S-Domain can be practically implemented using hardware,which includes op

WorkOur future work includes conducting simulation experiments on students populations of differentuniversities (e.g. teaching vs. research and state vs private). As stated in the Related Work,several factors can affect the student’s academic retention. Therefore depression data can not beused solely to inform a student’s future behavior. We will investigate adding agent domainattributes to the model (e.g. income, marital status and medical history, gender or ethnicity), andexamine how the model will behave.AcknowledgementsWe thank the anonymous reviewers for their useful comments and suggestions.
