declinein Cluster 3’s cumulative GPA (Fig. 2(b)).Research Question 3: Does retention vary across clusters? To test this research question, we examined three models for retention. Major retention, R1,is whether a student has switched their major since admission. This represents the university’sofficial recognition of a change of major. Engineering retention, R2, is whether a student hasswitched from their engineering major since admission but is still attending University A in anon-engineering major. Finally, university retention, R3, is whether a student is a current studentor not at the university as a whole. A chi-squared test for equal proportions was used to compareeach retention rate across clusters. We compare p-values of these tests to

Although more difficult toimplement because of the more sophisticated design and analysis of MC questions, it is possibleto give "partial credit" even for MC questions if, e.g., a MC question tests a different concept butthe answer is dependent on previous answer(s) of related MC question(s).As discussed above, MC distractors can give insight to student misconceptions in the same way Page 23.461.9that the traditional CR problems can provide the instructor information about commonmisunderstandings.

Developing an Engineering TaxonomyIn 1956, Benjamin Bloom first published his widely known taxonomy5. He identified six levelswithin the cognitive domain: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, andevaluation. The taxonomy advanced teaching and learning by motivating educators to create amore integrated method of educating students. During the 1990’s, a new group of cognitivepsychologists, led by Lorin Anderson, a former student of Bloom, updated the taxonomy toreflect relevance to 21st century work. Table 1 summarizes both old and new taxonomy levels6. Old Bloom’s Taxonomy Version ew Bloom’s Taxonomy Version Knowledge Define, duplicate, list, memorize, Remembering Can the

students in University 1’s engineer-ing departments are taking 138% of the hours that are needed to graduate.1 For this program, itmeans students are graduating with approximately 180 hours on average. It is also worth notingthe curriculum rigidity of the University 1 program. There are 1.48 edges per node, meaning eachclass has an average of one-and-a-half prerequisites. The longest path of nine is also significant,as it is longer than the number of semesters in a four year program, i.e., there are ten classes inthis pre/co-requisite chain that must be completed in eight semesters. Obviously there are severalco-requisites in this chain, meaning that two classes can be taken together, but this length makes afailure very costly in terms of timely

Thisallows us to determine how much more variance is explained by including the economic statusvariable.Raudenbush and Bryk assert the importance of using hierarchical linear modeling (HLM), ormultilevel modeling (MLM), in education research, especially when using variables that areaggregated at a higher level than the outcome variable(s) 18. In our case, six-year graduation is astudent level outcome while PES and DES are variables that are aggregated at the school anddistrict levels, respectively. MLM takes into account the interrelatedness of variables at multiplelevels, which violates the assumption of independence in ordinary least squares (OLS) regression19 . While MLM

thecorrect way to perform an engineering design process, but it strips away opportunities by notallowing students to be more engaged and learn by doing it themselves. Students in theapprentice model learn by observing, while students in the autonomous model learn by doing.Furthermore, as these groups of students continue to develop, we can suggest that those whoparticipated in a more heavily mentor team may become dependent and mold into a teammember, whereas a student who participated in a less mentorship team is more likely to becomeindependent and develop into a team leader.

The first wide-spread application of the Force Concept Inventory in theearly 1980’s highlighted students’ lack of understanding in fundamental physicsprinciples. Recently, educators have been reevaluating student understanding of conceptsin the standard science and engineering curriculum using concept inventory instrumentsin topics such as thermodynamics, mechanics, and fluid mechanics. The objective of thisstudy is to develop a methodology to observe specific examples of difficulty inconceptual understanding which could be used to infer specific student misconceptions.To achieve this task a pilot study was undertaken
