tutorials in which two components of motivation aremanipulated: task value and control beliefs. To manipulate task value, the module hastutorials on two quite different topics that would have different levels of interest forstudents: osmosis and the Northern Lights. Before the task value tutorials, the moduleasks students to rate their interest in the two topics. We anticipated that the NorthernLights topic would be more interesting for most students, but it was not for all students,and it was not necessary for that to be the case. After completing the two tutorials thatinclude pre and post tests, students answer questions about their reflections on task value.For the control beliefs manipulation, the module includes two topics about which

For example, the traditional-transmission learningformat, in which the degree of a student’s success depends only on the performance of quizzes,tests and projects in class, does not truly reflect the effectiveness on learning.We adopted more collaborative approaches for this NSF project to break away from traditionalnorms in education, while assessing students’ abilities in various summative cases; many aspectsin learning effectiveness

pedagogy [1]. John Dewey [8] who is most commonly associatedwith the theory of experiential learning described this learning approach as simply ‘learning bydoing”. This echos Confucius’s famous quote that states the following: I hear and I forgot, I seeand I remember, I do and I understand. Critical pedagogy is a philosophy of education and socialmovement. Critical pedagogy includes relationships between teaching and learning. Itsproponents claim that it is a continuous process of what they call "unlearning", "learning", and"relearning", "reflection", "evaluation", and the impact that these actions have on the students, inparticular students whom they believe have been historically and continue to be disenfranchisedby what they call "traditional

IntroductionIn recent years, Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) educators,professionals, business leaders, and policymakers have recognized and highlighted therequirement to build a strong and technologically trained workforce. This requires a strongeducation system with qualified and trained educators. While the American college leveleducators are willing to train this workforce, the K-12 education system is currently challengedby a crisis of inadequate teacher preparation in STEM disciplines leading to low studentpreparation and performance1. Furthermore, the K-12 science teachers will be

.The random forest classifier also introduces a relatively low computational cost in training. Thus,as new data is gathered, the model can be easily iterated upon to reflect the new data. If newfeatures are found during testing, the model can also be quickly updated to reflect those newfeatures. The random forest classifier then provides a flexible model that can be rapidly retrainedto reflect new observations or new data.Social-Cognitive-Theory-Based Support IntegrationAn independent educational game environment has disadvantages compared to instructorinteraction 28 .

However,team members from most institutions reported that re-establishing the conceptual basis and theplanned operations of the project was an important step in the development of their teamdynamics. The significant time lag between submitting the proposal and securing funding(almost nine months) was proffered as a major causative factor in the need to re-align projectgoals and approaches. One team reflected: Our proposal was based on what we thought the future might look like. When we would write a sentence, we put four things in that sentence, and the sentence makes it look

However, the rubric required students to discern between a “minorerror,” a “minor logic error” and a “significant conceptual error,” such that poor performance onthe calibration task may have been reflective of students’ inability to discern between these typesof mistakes.In this study we will examine preliminary data collected in an engineering statics course toobserve whether our students follow trends observed with postdiction calibration in other fields.Specifically, we are interested in determining if: 1) High-performing students are better calibrated than low

That these concepts overlap with related frameworks forunderstanding students’ motivation to succeed and perform in STEM education is perhaps unsurprising,but results in a complicated picture of how EI forms and what role it might play in students’ trajectories.To disentangle expectancy value constructs of motivation and EI measures of competency beliefs, wouldrequire a simultaneous consideration of both- an approach absent in the current literature[8].
