Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning, to understand engineering students’ identity devel- opment. She is the recipient of a 2014 American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Educational Research and Methods Division Apprentice Faculty

Research shows that while these personal factors are unique toeach student, educational environments can be structured or altered to influence some personalattributes in ways that positively impact retention.Motivation can impact how students face and persevere through challenging concepts and coursework. Research using project based computer game development has shown that assignmentscan be structured to facilitate student motivation and encourage them to work through difficultmaterial [13].

mandatory in-class activity sheets were developed and used for teaching each of the 55 concepts. This paperpresents the details of the KACIE model and its impact on fluid mechanics instruction bycomparing relevant data from the Fall 2015 control semester when the same course was offeredin a traditional teaching environment. The results show that the media-rich KACIE interventionin an HBCU has significantly improved students’ academic engagement and success,substantially reduced failure rate, and enhanced their critical thinking ability.
