University and commuter students represent a large portion of college enrollmentnationally [1]. Commuter students have differing constraints than residential students includingnonacademic commitments to work and family along with other time constraints for travel[2,3,4]. Commuter students thus face unique challenges that residential students do not face suchas developing social connections [5] which is connected to learning and persistence [6].Commuting negatively effects academic performance [7] and being able to integrate socially [8].The overarching research question for this S-STEM funded project is: How can a four-yearinstitution help increase the integration and success of engineering commuter students? We adoptan embedded case study approach

Q7 If a student answered ‘NA’ for Q 6, then only the student is asked Q 7 I believe, providing a quick tutorial/intro video regarding this specific lab would be helpful to familiarize me with the lab topic and could prepare me better for the in- lab, hands-on lab exercise.The demographic distributions (gender and ethnicity) for the participating students are shown inFig. 4.

forsuccess. Results suggests that good outcomes require well-designed assignments, well-managedgroups, student accountability, and instructor feedback [14, 17, 18]. Not surprisingly, variouskinds of conflict can undermine the potential of team-based learning [19]. For example, lack oftrust among teammates can sow discord. In particular, learning in the context of a team-baseddesign project may be limited when there is a perception that one or more teammate(s) is notmaking a sufficient or fair contribution to the team. This kind of individual disengagement,characterized by allowing others to carry out the more difficult or time-consuming work, iscommonly referred to as social loafing [19].Some studies suggest ways to promote team cohesion and prevent

For the remainder of the time, theUGTAs were asked to reflect and discuss several prompts, including: 4. In reviewing the principles of inclusive leadership, which principle would I identify as a strength and where I feel the most comfortable? 4 5. Are there specific times where I felt this was affirmed? 6. Which principle(s) would I identify as an area of growth? 7.

refer to the culminative findings for all students on a givenassessment as it relates to the course learning outcome(s) which are a critical tool in evaluatinghow well the necessary material within a course is being delivered to and received by thestudents. Both student and course level assessments should be considered when evaluating theimpact of changes made within a course. These types of assessments will be the focus of thispaper as a means to measuring students’ ability to consciously assess their competence in realtime during exams. Instructor level assessments refer to those performed by students at the endof the semester. While these are vital to course improvement they do not always reflect studentunderstanding and for that reason are

Dr. Reustle’s research intersects with and has expanded into habitat restoration and assessment where Dr. Reustle is interested in restoring habitat and ecosystem services.

that the experience of remote instruction, including socialisolation and collective trauma, have had a significant effect, especially on metacognitivelearning, or awareness and development of skills as a learner. These metacognitive shiftsmanifest in a variety of ways, including academic procrastination (e.g. waiting until the lastminute) and the related phenomenon of poor time management (e.g. not managing one’s timeefficiently and effectively).Literature Review From the very beginning of the so-called learning-centered revolution in highereducation, effective time management had been identified as a fundamental skill undergraduatestudents need to succeed academically. Starting in the 1980’s, several seminal studies establishedthe
approaches (adaptingitems from existing instruments) to the development of the two survey instruments: (1) a facultysurvey to identify engaging strategies, and (2) a student survey to evaluate these strategies in aself-reported Likert format along with open-ended questions.

It only briefly presents students’ evaluationof the engagement strategies as this is not the primary focus of this paper.Background and Motivation:Distance learning has been a staple of educational systems around the world since the 1700’s [1],but has only become a major topic of research in recent decades
