extrapolating these subgroup results. Greatersample sizes would yield more solid proof of the effects on a diverse learner’s body.According to [22], there is a high practical significance and potential for real-world impact dueto the very large effect size (d=1.03). However, depending solely on self-report measures has itslimitations due to its potential for bias. The conclusion that effects are meaningful would bestrengthened by the inclusion of objective competence measures. Long-term monitoring is alsorequired to ascertain whether effects endure over time [21]. All things considered, thispreliminary study offers a promising foundation for future research on self-efficacy andexperiment-centric pedagogy.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that

. Surveys included Likert-scale questions on self-efficacy, identity, and intent to persist that are supported by pre-existingliterature [13]–[15]. Additional questions on motivators, relevance of design challenges, andengineering skills were added for general instructor interest.Self-Efficacy Measured Across the Semester-Long CourseFour questions were asked to gauge self-efficacy (how certain are you that you can: identify adesign need, develop a design solution, evaluate and test a design, recognize changes needed fora design solution to work). Responses were collected on a Likert-scale, where 1 indicated“completely uncertain” and 7 indicated “completely certain.” Table 1 shows that responses to allfour questions could be grouped into one self

, depression, and anxiety) and personal resources (self-efficacy, engagement, and motivation) using an online survey. Students also provided permissionto record their grades on course assignments for analysis. Following the end of the semester,participating students’ scores were recorded for the following: (1) Average of scores forhomework assignments; (2) Average of scores on quizzes; (3) Average of scores for each of threephases of the term project; (4) Average of scores for three midterm exams; (5) Score for classparticipation. Data will be analyzed using multiple regression models. The proposed paper willdescribe the course structure and design of the course assignments, which differ in their level offlexibility, as well as the results and
