Each of the 11 sessions (8collaborative, 3 individual) involved solvingboth problems. For each session, one of thetwo problems had its measurements visible,while the other had them hidden to force theparticipant(s) to make use of the virtualmeasurement tool.

students within COSE, which supplied the funding for this study.BackgroundTheoretical FrameworkThe framework of Astin’s, Swail’s, and Tinto’s models are, in their simplest interpretation, aboutstudent involvement in their chosen college and program. Astin’s involvement model shows thatthe academic performance of a student is directly correlated to their involvement level within theircollege or program [2, 3]. Tinto theorizes that poor integration into the many facets of college life,including academically and socially, is an early indication of a student having a higher risk ofdropping out [4-6]. Finally, Swail et al.’s analysis of minority retention in institutions of higherlearning yields the Geometric Model of Student Persistence and
