not unusual for discrepancies to exist when a senior plans to spendan extra semester or year as an undergraduate or when a graduating student completed therequired senior course in a previous term.Administering the survey in the month prior to commencement, while the students are still oncampus and in contact with their faculty members, obviously allows for increased opportunitiesfor contact and leverage, both increasing response rate. The disadvantage is that some studentswill not seek or obtain placement until after commencement. Thus, surveys administered sixmonths after commencement, a common practice, will typically always report higher placementthan those administered on campus before students leave. However, response rates are

To obtain in-depth measures for these process oriented student learning outcomes, 100percent behavioral observation is typically used, but which is time consuming and expensive.Work sampling is a common industry practice used to observe physical activities, as it minimizestime to collect data, yet provides statistically similar results relative to 100% behavioralobservation.

The goal of this project is not to research the effectiveness of one particular pedagogy, it is to research the effectiveness of the space and tools designed to enable the instructor’s teaching plan. If a protocol is too heavily based on observing an expected pedagogy, important observations might go untracked. Active learning classrooms should support a variety of teaching perspectives and pedagogies and be designed in a way that encourages the use of a broad spectrum of learning activities, so the instructor has the flexibility to pick the best teaching approach for their intended goals
