The two colleges were among the smallest in terms of enrollment and faculty in the University, and merging them offered an opportunity to reduce administrative costs. Secondly, the laboratory facilities in many cases represented duplicates that were underutilized. It did not help that the two schools were situated at opposite ends of the campus.  Nevertheless, the prime motivation was to develop a college that would be “…locally prominent and nationally recognized…” in the pedagogy of the technological disciplines, an achievement that was not possible when the faculty and resources in those

A study [5] showed thatstudents with higher attendance rates performed better in laboratory components of the course,suggesting that attendance facilitated the acquisition of practical skills essential for the field.Several factors can impact attendance rates, including student motivation, course design, andexternal commitments. Studies have shown that flexible course delivery methods, such as hybridmodels, can improve attendance by accommodating diverse student needs [6].

Ina laboratory setting, the relationship between beacon signal strength (RSSI), distance, and ori-entation was examined to validate a proximity detection metric. A preschool classroom studyfurther tested the ecological validity of the real-time location system by comparing interactionsdetected by the automated system with those recorded by a traditional researcher-led method. Inorder to align the differing sampling methods of IDEAS and the traditional researcher-led method,we developed an algorithm to down-sample the beacon data.
