percentage value for each of his or her MBTI attributes (e.g., 35% E and 65% I,10% S and 90% N, etc.), and the distance between each student’s personality types iscalculated using these percentages: Distance = ( f 1i − f 1i+1 )2 + ( f 2i − f 2i+1 )2 + ( f 3i − f 3i+1 )2 + ( f 4 i − f 4 i+1 )2 (10)where f1, f2, f3, and f4 represent the percentage values for each student’s four MBTIfunctions. This value is multiplied by the PersonToProject i, j,k matrix, a linear binary model thatrepresents the assignment of each student to each project in a pairwise (student-to-student)fashion. The method of converting what would have been a polynomial binary model to alinear binary model was developed by Kuo et al. 15 specifically for modeling

Short-term plans include continuing the cohort program for subsequent years. In addition,as an extension to the program, plans are underway to embed it in the university curriculum inthe COE through the creation of a class based on the existing model. Current students in thecohort will be used as teaching assistants for the class and future teaching assistants will comefrom the class. Collectively, these efforts are expected to create meaningful and lasting changefor all students in the College of Engineering.Bibliography1 Litzler, E., Jaros, S

Here we offer guidance 2based on our experience pursuing IRB approval for research on evaluation data, although IRBpolicies vary by institution. We did not apply for IRB approval for Year 1’s data collectionbecause we wanted to pilot-test our methods first.

Following every exam and the group project, the students were asked to respond toreflection questions, encouraging them to take ownership of their learning. For example, after themidterm II exam, the students were asked to answer the following questions among others: a)What was/were the most important factor/s behind your performance in Midterm-II exam? b)“How well do you expect to perform in Midterm-III exam?
