for academic success.1. IntroductionWith the increasing demand for a skilled and technically savvy workforce in the United States,addressing retention problems in the first two years of college is a promising and cost-effectivestrategy to address this need. A recent Committee on STEM Education National Science andTechnology Council report Federal Science, Technology, Engineering, And Mathematics(STEM) Education 5-Year Strategic Plan indicates that the United States needs make STEMeducation a priority. To achieve that goal, the Department of Education has committed $4.3billion to encourage states to develop “comprehensive strategies to improve achievement andprovide rigorous curricula in STEM subjects; partner with local STEM institutions

The result from paired t-test showed that the increase wasstatistically significant (at p < 0.001) for both groups.We had expected that ability to collaborate and earn extra virtual points when working withpeers would motivate students to perform better, however the results seem to indicate otherwise.Based on the feedback from instructors, it was found that teams were formed randomly (size of3 students) which limited the engagement and that could have resulted with less team-basedcollaboration within SEP-CyLE.

In sticking with a conservative estimate, wesubtracted out time in which students appear to idle. The clearest example of this is whenstudents run an analysis, which may take up to 20 minutes to complete on complex designs.Additionally, if students were inactive for 40 minutes or longer their idle time was subtractedout. While we cannot rule that students’ may be active at this time, we are unable to definitivelyascertain this, so a conservative measure of time

Lack of strategic planning for early-career faculty towards coping with the demands of the academic career based on informed/realistic expectations [8].

Others suggested that the contact with the course monitor (or course-specificPOC) for any issues or questions related to the courses can be difficult.There were also several comments that scheduling related issues impacted adjunct facultypreparation- i.e. short lead time between assignment and class start, frequency of assignment
