belief as to how well one will perform in a givenactivity or task [11]. Competency beliefs are frequently grounded in self-efficacy theory [14],which mediates the connection between positive feedback and better academic achievement [15].While competency beliefs focus on a person’s ability to do a task or engage in an activity, valuebeliefs focus on an individual’s desire to engage (or the relevance of engaging) in an activity ortask. Key retention barriers associated with value beliefs include perceptions of attainment value,utility value, and interest value, which is the motivational construct under investigation in thisstudy. In the current study, interest refers to “student beliefs related to the enjoyability,significance and/or usefulness of

benefits of peer-enhanced learning, moredeveloped evaluative skills, a greater sense of belonging, improved self-efficacy beliefs, andhigher levels of intrinsic academic motivation. The merging of the two evidence-basedassessment approaches promises a scalable assessment modality hybridizing the pedagogicaldimensions of the former two assessment practices. Our study of students’ surveyed perceptionsabout peer oral exams offers perspectives on the qualities and potential role of peer oral exams ineducational practice and suggests directions for future educational research.IntroductionThe rapidly evolving professional ecosystem of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is placing highdemands on STEM education at an unprecedented rate [1], [2].

systematically controlling for student motivation, self-efficacy, interest in science, or other variables that might influence performance. Thus,examining the effectiveness of bridge programs solely based on student’s academic success,persistence or retention could be insufficient [9]. There exists a need to examine a broader arrayof student outcomes.Instead of focusing only on academic outcomes to evaluate the effectiveness of summer bridgeprograms, we propose to consider an examination based on the transformative nature of theprograms in order to provide a holistic view of the effectiveness of the programs. Indeed, thetransformative learning theory posits that thought-provoking experiential activities or scenarios(also referred to as “disorienting

learning and academic identity. CUREs provideauthentic learning experiences, raise the level of expectations for all students, and support thedevelopment of a community of learners – all critical for students who have been historicallyunderrepresented in STEM [11] [12] [13] [14]. These experiences support development of self-efficacy, interest and identity in STEM [12] [15], contribute to improved course outcomes [16],and generally result in higher retention and persistence for participating students [17].Place-Based Learning CommunityThe term “learning community” refers to a purposeful restructuring of curriculum to link two ormore courses from different disciplines to emphasize connections and provide coherence in thecurriculum [18].
