How do curricular elements of a first year Cohort program impactretention of students through sophomore year and graduation? For now, while more detailedmapping of STRIDE activities to student performance and retention could be interesting,collection of aggregate performance data and reporting of Cohort activities is more practical, anduseful at this stage. It is also helpful to try and identify if there are differences in the impact onstudents from different disciplines. The present paper focuses on the impact on engineeringstudents versus that on non-engineering students.CONCLUSIONSThe engineering students in Cohort 2 of STRIDE – a First-Year

Which topics have the greatest potential for enhancing educational outcomes through hands-on learning? 2. What is the impact of the experiments on student performance, on student interest and confidence in the subject matter, and on long-term retention of the knowledge? 3. Do these experiments have a positive impact on students from underrepresented groups in terms of performance, student interest, and retention? 4.

I.e., do sessions bring clientscloser to our standards for a given communication task, which are informed by both rhetoricalprinciples and real-world field standards? To do so, we designed a quantitative, rubric-based,pre-post evaluation of authentic writing products: drafts for graduate school and graduatefellowship applications, assessed by authentic evaluators -- a team of our own peer coaches.
