In the end, we hope tomake actionable recommendations for a variety of stakeholders regarding best practices forensuring retention of Black students in these majors. We employ a mixed-method approach toexplore our research questions.The quantitative dimension of our project employs the power of large population sizes availablein the Multiple-Institution Database for Investigating Engineering Longitudinal Development(MIDFIELD), which includes 10,929 Black students (8072 men and 2857 women) who haveever

This involves justifyingtradeoffs and prioritizing different aspects, a hallmark of argumentation. In addition, engineeringresearch requires significant evidence-based argumentation for new designs to be accepted andfor the adoption of innovative practices. As such, argumentation is deeply embedded into theinformal and formal practices of professional engineers.The Role of Arguments and Argumentation in Engineering EducationArgumentation theory has been used in science and mathematics education research over the pastfew decades but has been largely

it had the unfortunate impact thatassignment questions with more scope for students to make decisions were shifted later in theterm as this type of question is much easier to write for functions than for arrays. This also meantthat students had less practice with programming questions requiring the use of their judgement.The course project in MTE121 was scaled back significantly, becoming closer to a two partassignment rather than an open-ended design project. Accordingly, the weighting of theassignments and projects changed in the course syllabus (assignments increased from 10% to19% in 2020, and the project decreased from 15% to 6% in 2020)2.2.2 AssignmentsThe most significant change to the weekly assignments for 2020 was the shift away

Time, health, past and present experiences, future goals, life or work circumstances,and expectations for success are all factors that influence student learning [7]. Many of thefactors influencing dropout at master's degree are factors beyond student control, such asunforeseeable personal, health, or financial problems [8]. However, these factors do not explainall cases. Some of these factors are individual and personal, while others are institutional [9].Focused research is necessary to understand the factors that influence low early graduation rates.A literature review shows that there are practically no studies that analyze late graduation
