opportunity toincrease their understanding.Additional issues that may contribute to the average performance include low attendance andparticipation in lecture for the spring offerings, overburdened workload from lengthy homeworkassignments and application / programming projects, frequent written tests that did not clarifycommon misunderstandings, insufficient feedback on all assignments, but especially writtenassessments, and insufficient support to improve performance throughout the semester.Oral Formative AssessmentBeginning in the spring 2019 semester, a significant change was made to the Numerical Methodscourse at ASU. The biweekly written assessments were changed into biweekly oral assessments.This change was made primarily to increase student
course difficulty in engineering schools located inother countries, in order to discuss implications for different educational systems. 5.

entitled The Analytics Revolution in Postsecondary education [30],calls for postsecondary institutions to harness the analytics revolution to improve studentsuccess. The other is a joint statement released in 2019 by three US organizations within U.S.postsecondary education communities (The Association for Institutional Research (AIR),EDUCAUSE, and the National Association of College and University Business Officers),expresses a strong sense of urgency to reaffirm postsecondary education’s commitment to theuse of data and analytics to make better strategic decisions [31]. Data analytics has arisen from existing, well-established practices within postsecondaryinstitutions carried out by data-oriented professionals in the areas of
thePAs and TAs. They attempt to determine if the program was going well and solicit feedback onthe program during implementation (Resp. rate = 55%, N=125). Next, a survey was distributed tothe PLAs to determine the program impacts on PLAs and their opinions of the program (Resp.rate = 60%, N=9) in Fall 2019. Finally, aggregate non-identifiable end-of-term grade data wasgathered and compared between semesters to determine pass/no-pass rates (N=7).Student Rating of Teaching Surveys (SRTs)SRTs are a standard method of rating every course at the University of Minnesota. They provideresponses to general questions about a course. For example, did the course foster a deeperunderstanding of the subject matter, improve student interest in the subject
