Further, students typically volunteer to receive SI assistance, Oraargues that these students already exhibit the motivation for success and is not surprised on theirpersistence to graduation. It is the other “at risk” students that do not volunteer for SI that ourproposed tutoring center is aimed. Per Emblom-Callahan (2019), it is the under-preparedstudents that need additional lessons in “time management and study skills that help studentsbeyond the scope of one course” (p. 6).ResultsThis study

Teams consisted of two students when possible or an occasional team of three.A week before the lab, a handout was provided to the students with a question, the scenariobeing addressed by the question, the list of learning outcomes for the lab, the prelab expectations,materials with a sentence of methods explaining that the students need to develop the procedure,and a reminder of the two assessments required post-lab.

This effort has considerable implications for the STEM professions, such as engineering, where racial/ethnic minorities, first-generation, women and the socio-economically disadvantaged constitute a disproportionately low percentage of the workforce. As noted in the ASEE yearly report, only 11.4% of bachelor’s degrees in engineering were earned by Hispanic students and only 4.2% were earned by Black/African American students in the 2018 academic year.
