Lab modules with open-ended design learning experience through using a lab-in-a-boxapproach were developed to allow students to solve lab problems with multiple approaches thatallow problem solving independently and collaboratively. Because this innovative lab designallows problem solving at various cognitive levels, it is better suited for concept exploration andcollaborative lab learning environments as opposed to the traditional lab works with a“cookbook” approach that tend to lead students to follow certain procedures for expectedsolutions with the absence of problem exploration stage.

Retention rates amongcollege students are frequently employed as a metric for gauging institutional accountability andsuccess. Moreover, these rates are increasingly utilized as a basis for allocating resources.Gaining insights into the factors that influence college student retention has become imperativefor institutions of higher education.

disagree.Literature ReviewEstablishing the link between EI and teamwork is crucial for several reasons. Teamwork skill isstressed by ABET but unevenly distributed among engineering graduates according to employersurveys (Marra et al. 2016). When students with varying skill levels work together in teams, theirinteractions and perceptions of themselves and others can influence their EI formation.Underrepresented minority (URM) students may be particularly affected. Studies have shownthat female students who asked questions during teamwork were perceived as less competent inSTEM (Hoehn et al. 2020), and racial minority students suffered from low self-esteem for fear ofbeing viewed as diversity “tokens” (Ong et al. 2020).

The most popular was six months in industry followed by six months in collegein each of four successive years [4].A requirement of the NCTA was that all students for their diplomas should have participatedin programs of liberal study. This was reinforced in 1957 by a government edict that extendedthe idea of compulsory liberal studies to all levels of technical education even though muchof it was part time study [5]. By 1962 it was seen that the development of literacy, that is theability to read and write, was essential for the general education of all students. Thus, it wasthat in those colleges the term Liberal Studies came to be substituted by General
