These factors include poor-quality teaching and advising, a challenging curriculum,deficiencies in mathematics, uninspiring courses, lack of sense of belonging, a lack of interactionbetween students and faculty, financial difficulties, a lack of hands-on projects as well as theavailability of infrastructure and laboratory facilities [1]–[3], [8]–[11]. All of these factorsgreatly contribute to major change and dropout

This was found to better prepare students for lectureson new concepts, as well as give instructors more time to teach the new concept in class as theydid not need to review prerequisite knowledge with students [4]. Similarly, another study foundthat having more tutorials or example problems was helpful in engineering students'comprehension of math [12]. Other studies tested new e-learning practices and programs [5], [9-10]. They found that this style of learning was the best alternative during the COVID-19 pandemic;however, it also produced more confusion during certain laboratory activities [5], [10].
