(ASEE) published a special education researchproject dedicated to retention related issues of engineering students in 2012 [1, 2]. This ASEEretention project collectively invited around 60 universities to share their perceptions on thistopic and, specifically, asked for a focus on exploring the best practices and strategies forretaining students in Engineering, Engineering Technology and Computing programs [1, 2]. Themain focus of this study is to find the reasons why 40 to 50% of engineering freshmen had eitherswitched or withdrawn from the engineering major. The study indicated that it is mainly due topoor teaching and advising, difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of “belonging”within engineering [2, 3]. Furthermore, these

Expanding on the success of the FCI, Gray et al. [9] have created and are fine tuning aDynamics Concept Inventory (DCI) test. The test examines 11 different concepts over a 29-questionmultiple choice exam and since its inception, has been analyzed to have “adequate” reliability [10]. Inaddition, there has also been some work to investigate a shortened version of the same DCI [11]. In this study, the DCI was implemented at the very beginning (pre-course) of two Fall Dynamiccourses (in 2018 and 2019) at a public university and then again at the very end of the same course(post

In terms of computational tools,until Spring 2019, students were using Excel but because of limitations with using Excel duringexams, they were also instructed on using calculators and statistical tables on paper, for theirexams. This created student resistance to use of Excel, with students complaining that they couldnot see why they were made to use Excel, when their exams required only a calculator and tableson paper. Therefore, one motivation behind the project implementation was to lead the studentsinto discovering the value of computational tools.
