Theseletters included what students wished they had known before coming to college and whatstudents wanted to share from the “Engineering the Mind” course.Data analysisWe used multiple methods to analyze the data because we wanted to capture various nuances ofthe course. For quantitative methods, we calculated the average score of the items for each scalefor each student. For example, the mindset scale had eight items, each with a score ranging fromone to six (Likert

The plan is to make the change to digital. Page 12.55.8 • Currently the students take data manually. The plan is to add differential pressure transducers and to use low cost USB based data collection modules to collect the data.
