This indicatesthat the intervention did not have a statistically significant impact on the scores for this section.Pair 3 (PreS3 - PostS3):There's also no significant change in Section 3's mean scores from pre (M=4.3317, SD=0.95488)to post (M=4.3673, SD=0.91948), t(82) = -0.269, p = 0.788.Pair 4 (PreS4 - PostS4):No significant change is observed in Section 4's mean scores from pre (M=5.6790, SD=0.56833)to post (M=5.7693, SD=0.67441), t(82) = -0.931, p = 0.355.Pair 5 (PreS5 - PostS5):A slight, but not statistically significant, increase is noted in the mean scores for Section

Because CArE 5619 uses a “straight scale” without a curve, and because “required”assignments resulted in a minimum grade of “70 points = C”, students were made aware that thesuccessful completion of all optional assignments included in Module 7 would raise a student’sgrade from a “C” to a “B” (i.e., 70+10 pts).Details of the “story board” / “poster” communication exercise, including a grading rubric, areprovided in Appendix D.Table 2.

required additional prompting through clarification question(s)(Question 4). While four students did present an HLC-indicating evaluation that included costand efficiency (80%), three of the students also mis-evaluated and/or mis-applied concepts (60%IU), displaying mixed outcomes. Several answers alluded to concepts related to the build projectbut less relevant to the broader context of large-scale water treatment operations (i.e. “overflow,running out of chemicals, or not adding in things at the correct time”). This disconnectedresponse may be indicative of students thinking that all project concepts correlate with real life, apotential issue of PBL. It is unclear if these answers show an incorrect or merely an incompleteunderstanding of full

This method is effective forimplementing new content or revising courses and broader curricula in any discipline. Thebackward design method begins by asking two questions: 1) What do I want my students to beable to think and do by the end of this course? 2) How will my students be different by the end ofthe course?Lessons Learned: Granda found the EOP Framework to be flexible to implement. Facultymembers can choose which student learning outcome(s) their course will address.
