co-teaching, classroom technologies, active learning in the classroom, and various classroom-based affective inter- ventions targeted at fostering self-efficacy, belongingness, metacognitive learning strategies, and growth mindset affect outcomes such as student retention and success, particularly during the freshman and sophomore year. Her field of research is undergraduate engineering education. Dr. Kiehlbaugh com- pleted her BS and MS at the University of Arizona and her PhD at UC Berkeley. She is now a Research Assistant Professor in the College of Engineering at her undergraduate alma mater. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 1 Scalable and Practical

in the subject domain.MethodsWhile the data analysis is ongoing, the survey questions had a 4-Likert scale to measurestudents’ perceptions. Most survey questions utilized a 4-item Likert scale from StronglyDisagree, Disagree, Agree, to Strongly Agree. Multiple items asked students about theclassrooms’ environment, activities and interactions as well as self-efficacy. 42 of the 46undergraduate chemical engineering students consented to participate in the study. A closed-ended survey was administered to participants with a 52% response rate.Preliminary Results74% of the responding students indicated the homework and in-class worksheets were mostconducive to their learning while reading the textbook was perceived by 60% of the respondentsas the
