formation systems in terms of balancing teamsizes and diversity profiles within teams below problem scale thresholds of 12 project teams andapproximately 70 students. Post hoc analysis of student performance indicates that forming projectteams with this tool fosters project team environments that offer students from underrepresentedgroup equal (if not greater) opportunities to succeed. Our analysis reveals several statisticallysignificant differences in performance by gender where female students outperform male students inspecific areas. These effects may be attributable to exogenous factors consistent with previouslyreported results. Proceedings of the 2021 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference

Content analysis is a researchmethod used to make replicable and valid inferences by interpreting and coding textual, visualand audio data (Stemler, 2015). The sample institutions were chosen from the top six institutionsawarding bachelor’s degrees to African Americans (ASEE, 2019).

In addition to thescale-up of engineering education research activities, an emergence of innovative researchmethods are contributing to the advancement of the field (Carstensen & Bernhard, 2019; Case &Light, 2011). In particular, quantitative research methods have been critical in the growth ofengineering education as a field of inquiry (Borrego et al., 2009; Chou & Chang, 2010; Malmi etal., 2018).

Becausethe exams are nearly identical, we can compare to the virtual setting examresults (2020) to the non-virtual results (2019). This is one method toquantitatively assess student learning. Moreover, students were alsoinvited to complete an anonymous survey regarding the efficacy of thevirtual course. The survey included seventeen questions (Table 2,appendix) using a Likert scale to quantitatively assess the effectiveness ofthe virtual offering. The questions inquired about the course objectives,course materials, and machine operational confidence. They were asked to Figure 2: Virtual course module structure.
