factors relating to student attrition in engineering &applied science are debated within the literature [23,24] studies which suggest that ‘ActiveLearning’ has a positive impact on the student experience within the engineering field areperhaps the most optimistic; with evidence suggesting that hands-on, relevant active learningexperiences can do much to promote a positive student experience [25,26].2.1 The Case Study OrganisationGosta University is located in the central region of the United Kingdom. A university since the1960’s, Gosta is one of the UK’s most diverse universities, with over 60% of its studentpopulation originating from Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) backgrounds.

These charts work like a window into the process and provide a quantitativemeasure of the product quality. One must at least go through the following steps to determine theprocess capability.1) After all the assignable causes have been eliminated from the process as far as it is practical,check to see that the process is stable and under tight control, collect at least 25 to 50 samples, 3to 6 reading per sample.2) Record the data set in a time ordered sequence.

that integrating many differentmathematics ideas in one concrete context is challenging. Further supports, such as using thedesign context as a capstone activity or incorporating structured transfer activities, may berequired to effectively enable students’ mastery of the more general mathematical ideas. In ourfuture work, we intend to consider more case studies of the curriculum in-action withimprovements to the implementation based on these findings, in addition to conductingcomparative analyses of the curriculum relative to alternative approaches. This will help us tofurther elaborate on the conditions necessary for designing effective K-12 engineering curricula.Bibliography1. W. H. Schmidt, C. C. McKnight, and S. A. Raizen, A Splintered

InFall 2005 and 2006, 96 and 101 freshmen, respectively, joined the WPI Robotics Team.

While prior work has thoroughlyarticulated the technical issues in these flawed design criteria [1], [3], the present work aims tosupport formal study of how engineers recognize and treat variability, with an eye towardsunderstanding how the aforementioned flaws evaded notice for over a half-century.In this work, we present a novel theoretical framework and initial empirical results. We use theproposed cause-source framework to analyze aircraft design flaws and to design an interviewprotocol. Through interviews with engineering students, we find initial evidence of an
