Both highlighted topics around interactivity/engagement, communication,instructor support, feedback, instructions/resources, flexibility, and teaching methods. Forexample, the "Interactivity and Engagement" topic from the GAI aligned with human codesaround class participation, teamwork, and project assignments - all factors impacting howengaged students felt.

Autonomy involves being and acting in harmony withone's integrated sense of self and values as well as feeling that one has ownership over one’sactions. In educational environments, autonomy is visible when learning environments offerlearners opportunities for choice, self-direction, and flexibility rather than imposing strict or rigiddirection and demands. Learners are thus motivated when they have choice in their academicpathways, courses, learning topics, classroom projects, etcetera based on their interests andaspirations.

However, thesestudents face specific challenges, referred to as the vertical transfer penalty, when they transfer tofour-year universities. This can lead to lower completion rates for community college starterscompared to students who start at four-year universities.
