All othercourses are defined as third level. The higher education level embraced a university sector(private) and a public sector funded primarily by Local Education Authorities (LEA‟s). It is withdevelopments in higher education in the public sector that this paper is concerned.At that time the education system in England and Wales was highly selective. A simplifiedmodel of the system is shown in exhibit 1. After primary school the student was directed to oneof three types of school.

In addition, the study canact as an excellent test bed for revealing any limitations or bugs that may exist in the software.That we will be checking for statistically significant differences in the change in pretest andposttest scores between the three groups for this particular educational intervention differentiatesthis study from those currently seen in the existing body of literature.

Measuring AE levels across variouspopulations, e.g. engineering students vs. working professionals, could provide insight into howadaptiveness progresses over time and eventually how targeted activities can be designed todevelop these types of cognitive skills in our engineering students.Currently there is very limited data on AE measurements of any population. In this study, we aimto establish baseline measurements of these dimensions by collecting and analyzing survey datafrom first-year students in STEM fields over multiple years.
