The first time themodified exam format was utilized was in Applied Thermodynamics on the final exam. Thisinformation is included in Table 1 to illustrate the timeline of implementation of the examformat, but data from the spring 2019 offering of the course is not included in the analysis sincethere was a mix of testing formats utilized.

To achieve this,data from three cohorts of engineering students from the years 2018, 2021, and 2022 (pre- andpost-COVID pandemic) were analyzed. The study included a sample size of 1527 in all threesurveys: the first survey at the beginning of the first semester, the second survey at the end of thefirst semester, and the third survey at the end of the second semester.Student data was pulled from course surveys that students do as part of their assignments.

1 Story-driven Learning in Higher Education: A Systematic Literature Review Abstract Stories have been a pervasive, ubiquitous feature of our lives throughout humanhistory—indeed, storytelling itself is robustly associated with a host of positive benefits,including better mental health (Robertson et al., 2019), increased empathy (Cummings et al.,2022), and a greater sense of belonging (Ritter et al., 2019). As such, storytelling has thepotential to be a powerful tool in a range of settings, including higher education (i.e., story-driven learning).

), though Ariyo, Bai, and Xiao (2023) warn higher ed faculty to be waryof the “hype cycle” that often accompanies new educational technologies (p. 286). Still, muchattention has been paid on faculty-centered issues like assignment prompts (Sayers, 2023),assessment (Carroll, 2023; Nikolic et al., 2023; Rudolph, et al. 2023), and pedagogy (Straumeand Anson, 2022; Leander and Burriss, 2022).
