A mixed methods approach combines qualitative and quantitative approaches in aspecific way which best answers the desired research question(s) 9,11. My research follows thequalitative research tradition to explore the development of students as cross-disciplinary teammembers.Qualitative educational research often seeks to gain insight into the lived experiences of anindividual or group of people through direct interaction between the participant and theresearcher.

Graphic organizers “preview material to be covered in class and/or summarize what wascovered and put it in a broader context.”56In the case of this two-course sequence, the VLSI Graphic Organizer gave students the bigpicture of the circuit design process in the context of authentic industrial and aerospaceproblems. The use of a graphic organizer is expected to be helpful because approximately 80%of engineering students are visual learners [27, Table 1].2) Learning objectivesFor each homework assignment, laboratory exercise, and exam, students are provided with atable mapping each problem to the appropriate course learning objective(s).

The factors outlined in thisframework will be central to understanding student success at HBCUs and enable the connectionof the present study’s findings to existing literature.MethodsThe researchers implemented an iterative, descriptive research model by including the followingaction items: (a) engaging research participants; (b) developing data collection strategies; (c)defining variables and constructs; and (d) gathering information and investigating researchquestion(s). This paper focuses on the data collected currently from one institution. The presentresearch study findings are informed by quantitative data. Data from additional HBCUs will becollected and analyzed subsequently.ParticipantsParticipants
