. Students access the active learning modules through an online learning managementsystem. Modules consist of ten units that engage students through relatable examples andpractices of foundational principles and applications of engineering graphics. The team took self-efficacy and academic success measurements, which were then analyzed using paired t-tests. Results support previous findings that there are significant differences in self-efficacyand academic success, including students' mental rotation abilities, when instructors providesupplemental materials. The data also supports that students at risk of non-matriculation benefitfrom the combination of active learning modules and additional video tutorials in the realms ofself-efficacy

reports persistencerates for engineering degree programs as 91%, measuring persistence as progressing from oneyear to the next [7]. They also report a persistence rate for engineering programs of 84.4%.PRISM journal from The American Society For Engineering Education (ASEE) reports anational first-year persistence for engineering bachelor’s degree at 92.8% and a retention rate of86.4% [8] Factors such as academic self-efficacy, access to resources, and the ability to applycourse concepts to real-world scenarios are crucial predictors of success, particularly forfirst-generation students [3]. Programs designed to enhance self-regulation and reduce anxietyare especially beneficial for this demographic, providing a foundation for their academic
