supportstudents who struggle with math coursework. To stay true to the mission of the Mindset Reportand the overarching goal of having more diverse representation in the engineering field,continued work needs to be done to address this issue, and this ongoing study aims to discoverand highlight targeted interventions that can be implemented to help achieve these goals byincreasing self-efficacy and ultimately retention.References[1] Bertoline, G.

Model for the Secondary-TertiaryTransition in Mathematics developed by Clark and Lovric [1],[2] is completed. The theoreticalmodel proposes that the secondary-tertiary transition in mathematics is a rite of passage [1],[2].During the transition, students may struggle due to differences in high school and collegemathematics [1],[2]. Because of this struggle, mathematics is commonly characterized as agatekeeper to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) degrees [3].Therefore, for mathematics-heavy STEM majors, such as engineering, mathematics courserequirements could inhibit STEM degree completion. By better understanding the secondary-tertiary transition in mathematics, student accessibility to college mathematics could

for those who took college algebra andtrigonometry [2]. Also, some studies suggest that taking high school calculus does notnecessarily contribute to success in college calculus. Instead, mastering the prerequisites(algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) is more important. Hence, we find it crucial not to makeassumptions on what the student does or does not know and start with diagnostics to assessstudents’ prior knowledge and provide paths that allow the student to progress effectively.1.2 The Consequence of Prolonged Time to Degree CompletionCalculus 1 serves as a critical gateway course for many advanced science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) classes. However, a sizable number of incoming studentsstruggle with calculus

Theyare exposed to a wide array of videos, websites, and applications that enable them toexplore topics, often without relying on traditional textbooks. These modern toolsare perceived as more engaging and informative compared to conventional lecturesand reading materials. To align with these evolving learning preferences, educatorsmust adapt their teaching
