It was not until the 1880sthat students and educators started to use physical laboratories to augmented theory taught inlecture settings [3]. In 1910, Dewey weight into the debate on the usefulness of laboratoryexperiments. Dewey was not convinced that adding laboratory exercises to the curriculum wasan added benefit [4]. Over time, the: approach of integrating laboratory experiences represented a marked change from earlier science education. In contrast to earlier curricula, which included laboratory experiences as secondary applications of concepts previously addressed by the teacher, the

Similarly, Olds & Miller [18] examined thecumulative GPAs of multiple student cohorts, but the analysis compared students across groups (thosewho participated in an integrated curriculum intervention and a control) rather than studying the shifts andtrajectories of students’ GPAs without intervention.In this work, we seek to fill this gap by studying students’ GPA over time. By doing so, we may betterunderstand how GPA functions more generally before attempting to pinpoint specific factors thatinfluence GPA positively or negatively. Based on the evidence emphasizing the importance of grades andGPA as a research tool and as an influential aspect of students’ academic lives and overall wellbeing, wealso seek to share the tools of our analysis

Nevertheless, the authorsfervently wanted to expose their colleagues to best practices in active learning that couldtranscend the curriculum. Our belief is that unique contextual research performed at ouruniversity would present persuasive evidence that would encourage broad implementation ofactive learning methods. In an attempt to answer valuable questions posed by faculty, theresearch team (the authors) decided to investigate the following: • What level of instructional interactivity in the classroom most effectively promotes student learning: high-level interactivity, mid-level

of the discipline that can guide engineering educators who want to learn about the best practices in formative assessment.I. IntroductionA. What is Assessment? Why Assess? “Educational assessment seeks to determine how well students are learning and is an integral part of the quest for improved education. It provides feedback to students, educators, parents, policy makers, and the public about the effectiveness of educational services.” (excerpt from Pellegrino et al. [1]).Assessment, evaluation, and measurement are important facets of university education. Marzanopresented the following definitions of important assessment-related terms by synthesizing theworks of various classroom assessment experts [2
