Simulation Trainings. Toanalyze students’ presentation skills improvement through the VR-activity, the authorsconducted peer evaluations for pre and post-activity presentations. Additionally, after the VRactivity, the authors conducted an exit survey, obtaining the students’ perception of theactivity. The data obtained from the different surveys and evaluations allowed the authors to(1) develop an ordered probit regression model to understand the influence of several factorssuch as academic level, gender, first-generation and international status; (2) identify themajor deficiencies in CM students' communication and presentation skills; and (3) assess theeffects of VR-based presentation simulations on CM students’ presentation skills.

their hands feel when they touch hot vs. cold items (such as stainless steel pot).  Have students draw or write about how their hands feel when in contact with a hot surface vs. in contact with a cold surface.  Discuss with students how the heat from a hot surface is transferred to their hands when their hands are in contact with such surface.  Explain how some materials let heat through more easily than others. These are called good ‘conductors’ of heat. The heat travels or ‘conducts’ through the material. The glass should have felt the hottest because it is the best conductor of heat. Insulation materials, such as polystyrene felt the coolest, because it is a poor conductor of heat.Convection
