thatacademic preparation is typically not one of the main reasons for attrition 4,5. In other words, moststudents who leave academia choose to leave because of their own personal decision, not becausethey failed qualifying exams or are doing poorly in their courses 5–7. Indeed, Barnes et al.’s 8,9studies of graduate attrition showed that the attributions that professors give for their students thatleave are different than the rationale that the corresponding non-completing students give forleaving. The misalignment, misunderstanding, or attribution bias that may exist (from both parties)is worthy of study and is likely due to the issues that have arisen with sampling a sensitivepopulation.Further, most attrition literature takes a sociological view of

The instructional design agent’s role can bedefined as the set of responsibilities and activities that fall within an agent’s intended purpose,which when viewed holistically, demarcate its position or part to play within the designchallenge.In light of this definition, we turn to three points of consideration needed to develop this role:what design intelligence will the agent(s) embody, what specific types of roles will the designagent(s) assume and how many design agents should be employed.We discuss the design intelligence agents embody first, as this has implications for the

thesedistinctions, we can transition students back to traditional representations after their conceptualknowledge is robust enough to guide them. Our themes of perceptually similar concepts,perceptually obscure concepts, and informationally incomplete representations suggest clearavenues for investigating what types of perceptual cues may hinder students’ ability to developor use appropriate conceptual knowledge. As engineers, we can use this knowledge to potentiallydesign new notations or new pedagogical techniques that can help students recognize andovercome the ways our notation may currently be failing to help students learn.References [1] S.
