SuccessRetention and student success data in the College from the early 2000’s indicated that first-timestudents who placed into Math 1110 (Algebra II) were much less likely to be retained to thesecond year and to ultimately complete their degree (whether from the College or from anothermajor at WMU) than students who entered the College placing into at least MATH 1180 (Pre-Calculus). Further refinement of the retention data showed that students achieving a grade inAlgebra II of lower than ‘B’ were even less likely to complete their degree successfully thanstudents who completed Algebra II with a ‘B’ or higher (a ‘C’ or higher is required by theMathematics Department to proceed to Pre-Calculus). Based on these observations, starting in2013, a separate

3D modeled Figure 3. Mini drone assembly in on CREO Parametric unexploded viewAfter redesigning the drone, students 3D print the newly designed part(s) and rebuild theirdrones. At this stage, students are able to conclude whether their design is better than the originaldesign that came with the kit. A better model can have one or more of these: (1) lighter inweight, (2) more aerodynamic, and (3) safer for the user (e.g. has propeller cages). Figures 4 and5 show a better and successful (a redesign is considered successful if the new drone is still ableto fly) and unsuccessful designs, respectively. In Figure 4, the new design is lighter than theoriginal, and the drone is able to fly. In Figure 5

This is generally defined as code obfuscation. The practice of codeobfuscation in modern software engineering dates back to the 1980’s, with small competitions heldto transform simple C code into confusing, abstract puzzles difficult for humans to parse andunderstand5.Since the 1980’s, literature on code-level obfuscation has been consistent but generally sparse. Thisfield of research is relatively small, with no more than three or four papers published each year sincethe early 1990’s. With the growth of cloud

One goal behind such a grade distribution is to make students take seriously theday-to-day work of reading, writing, practicing, discussing, and problem-solving.Creating assignmentsTo create a pre-class reading assignment, the instructor directs students to reading materialassociated with the topic(s) to be addressed in class. In addition, they require students to answer,in writing, a handful of reading questions that ask them to think more deeply about what theyhave read. Students must submit their answers to the reading questions at least one day beforethe start of class. The instructor may also wish to have students write down

For example, since my high school focused on science and technology, Ireally had that opportunity to sort of become a scientist. But, what I realized when working senioryear on my research project is that scientist[s] spend their whole lives delving into a problem,laying it out, describing it, but they don’t solve it at all, and I don’t think I would be able to livesuch big issues on my shoulders that I could
