-correlation analysis of thewebcam eye tracking for the four testedparticipants revealed an average cross-correlation of 0.874 at an average lag of0.03 s (Fig. 5). To further assessrelative accuracy of the webcam eyetracking, average correlation valueswere calculated across the four subjectsunder different conditions. Thisincluded different distances from thescreen (1 ft, 2 ft, and 3 ft), the presenceor absence of eyeglasses, and in bothwell-lit and dark room environments(Fig. 6). The correlation values rangedfrom 0.80 to 0.91, where manyparticipants had lower correlation values in a dark room, though this was not statisticallysignificant.DiscussionQualitative analysis revealed that the most important features for the assessment of boredom

This is particularly impacted by the team dynamics. Onesuggested answer to this pedagogical dilemma is for educators to have a clear idea on how to formteams that are more effective.This research addresses the following questions: What team formation method(s) has proven to besuccessful? Can identifying student learning styles be an effective means of forming balanced teams?This study investigated various methods typically used by educators to form teams. Examples of thesewould be random, self-selection, GPA, learning skills, and hybrids of these.During the first year of this study, the

In order to validate this innovative approach, we will collectadditional data during Spring 2025 in order to investigate instructor and student experiences bycollecting surveys, interviews, videos, and classroom observation. In the future, we plan toexplore additional strategies for incorporating narrative elements and modifying course materialswith less effort required from the instructor.References[1] S.

This retrospective pre/post questionnaire technique helps to alleviate response-shift biaspresent in self-assessed changes in learning attitudes. Our findings show that collaborativepresentation videos increased self-reported audience interest in engineering, and perceptions ofdisciplinary relatedness more than the non-collaborative, individual presentations made by thesame researchers. These results suggest a beneficial role for collaborative communicationstrategies to foster interest in engineering among public audiences, even among people without abackground in STEM. Further

Researchers advanced that, in addition to intellectual andscientific reasons, low-income students are attracted to the major by the potential prospect ofemployment after completing a degree [1], [4]. Financial considerations are critical for low-SESengineering students; this includes considerations of financial aid and differential tuition [5].Programs such as the National Science Foundation Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) have beenimplemented to address financial assistance of low-SES students.

It relates competence to, “Can I earnan engineering degree?” and task value beliefs to, “Do I want to earn an engineering degree?”Twenty students (12 first-year and 8 second-year low-income engineering transfer students) wereinterviewed about their experiences in engineering. Additionally, these twenty studentscompleted a survey collecting data on their demographics, recognition, social belongingness
