entered into the LMSgrade book without any human labour. The time allocated to write each quiz was 1.2 minutes perquestion, which was the same as the NPPE. Quizzes were open-book, open-notes but were to becompleted individually. It was impossible to supervise that the tests were indeed completedindividually, and some students were commented about cheating in their surveys. The timewindow to write a quiz was 48 hours. Students could start their quiz at any time in that window.After the testing time window had expired, the instructor allowed students to review whichquestions they got wrong on the test.For the online quizzes the average grades were similar from 2014 to 2015 (Table 5). Howeverthe standard deviation was much less in 2015

Thefirst email that the students received from their client described that Perri’s customers wereasking for changes to the cage in order for their hamsters to have “more room to run and exploreto be happy and healthy.” The first student answer was centered around his own thoughts, i.e.,Kyle made the connection that expanding the habitat means more hamsters could fit.

In 2014 whenthe original cornerstone pilot was completed, over 50% of entering students had some AP creditin Calculus, 20% had Chemistry credit, 35% have College Writing credit and 35% have Physicscredit. These students as well as current students with advanced credit face a limited courseselection to complete their academic schedules in these early semesters since it is difficult to findcourses that they can take in the first year that do not have prerequisites. This created the need torevise the curriculum to offer students the opportunity to accelerate their exploration of anengineering major. In order to accomplish this, students

Whensolving complex problems, CT helps with understanding complex phenomenon throughcombining the critical thinking skills and the fundamental concepts of computer science likeabstraction, decomposition and algorithm [7], [9], [11]. Therefore, engaging students in CTthrough the context of engineering education can promote problem-solving skills, and may helpstudents find innovative solutions and make good decisions [7].Wing [11] argues that CT is a core ability for reading, writing and math and should be added toanalytical ability of children.

These trainees had fewer opportunities to benefit from successful masteryexperiences or positive messaging from site mentors, while the opposite was true for traineeswith well-structured externships.

Students with strong self-efficacy beliefs tend to work harder, engage in more self-regulatory strategies, evaluate their progress more frequently, solve problems more efficiently,and show greater levels of persistence than equally capable peers with lower self-efficacy [17],[18]. As self-efficacy beliefs are thought to be context-specific [17], researchers examiningstudents’ self-efficacy beliefs have often focused student beliefs within specific subject areasincluding mathematics [19], [20] and science [21].While self-efficacy is well established as a powerful predictor of academic performance, less isknown about how self-efficacy beliefs within specific
