caretaker. The Bridge House was recently transformed by undergraduatestudents6 into a structural dynamics laboratory, including aesthetic rehabilitation, fabrication andinstallation of testing equipment and the addition of removable braces to alter the buildingdynamic response. The Bridge House is ideal for vibration experimentation since it is simpleenough for the students to quickly model by hand calculations and with computational models,yet complex enough so that the results can be readily applied to an actual structure. Thestructural system is straightforward consisting of ordinary moment frames in the N/S direction,and concentrically braced frames in the E/W direction. Removable braces were also installed inthe E/W direction (see Figure 1c

In the 2000’s Steif and Dollár[8] suggested and then later showed[9] that thecombination of in-class conceptual questions and hands-on physical demonstrations in a Staticsclass resulted in high learning gains.

For example, learning analytics supply insight into the numberand time of student interactions [12]–[14] and the frequency of viewing content pages [15] andtools [10], [16]. Student behavior analytics is often compared to student performance and provento correlate significantly. Joksimovic et al. (2015) found that the count of student-studentinteractions in an entirely online course significantly correlated with the students’ grades. Also,the time spent interacting with the instructor had positive effects on the final learning outcomes[13]. Agudo-Peregrinal et al.

To answer this question, students were asked, “Please indicate whether the following topics were covered in your last high school courses. (Mark all that apply)”. One of the topics was “climate change”. Students option were binary, marking either yes or leaving blank for “Biology, Physics, Chemistry, or Other Course(s)”.

The features identified in the summaries from the semesters of the interventionwere used to review the summaries from the previous year(s). Once the structural features ofthe summaries were identified, one of the second authors read the summaries looking for thesame structural elements to confirm the structural patterns. Then the board comments/scores were also collected for the semesters used to identifyany patterns of improvement. This strategy did not work out as planned due to a few anomaliesinvolved in the semesters included in the study. There was no clear evidence of improvementbetween the semesters studied.
