The key idea behind an LLC is thatstudents live together, usually on the same floor(s) of a dormitory, and that students areeither pursuing the same academic majors/concentrations or are participating in a (ofteninterdisciplinary) curricular program specifically created for the LLC. Studies haveshown an increased sense of student belonging and/or academic success(EdMc02,Stas03,SSMN+13,SuFi08,Mart20).

Discovering a major is not a good fit often results in transfer studentsleaving engineering or significantly lengthening time to degree completion. To promote students’confidence in their major choice, students will view a video introducing engineering majorsavailable at Mississippi State University. The BETS course will include additional pertinentinformation for new transfer students. Topics for BETS Transitions include: • How to use the CANVAS course – A quick how-to video to highlight the functions of the course • Choosing an Engineering Major – Engaging video(s) to introduce engineering majors • Orientation – Information about orientation

appear to have difficulty being patient with theprocess of learning from the videos.Future Ideas1) The author plans to continue with traditional classroom instruction for lessons one, two, andfive with one adjustment – to create back-up videos for the material presented in class. This way,when a student misses a class or needs to review something that he or she didn’t fullyunderstand, they can watch the back-up video(s).2) The author is considering having students do the video tutorials as homework prior to classand then doing the independent portions of the homework in the classroom. The benefits of thisflipped classroom approach would be to have more interaction time with students during theirportion of the homework that is less structured and
