Spring 2016 class had 18students and 2 students did not continue after the first midterm. Furthermore, the same amount ofcourse material was covered in both the classes.ResultsSpring 2015 and Spring 2016 grading criteria is shown in Table 1.

State UniversityProf. Paul Kelter, North Dakota State University Paul Kelter’s 38-year career has focused on the integration and transfer of knowledge among students and teachers at all educational levels. He was the inaugural director of the Science Outreach Office at the University of Wisconsin – Oshkosh in the late 1980’s through early 1990’s. Many of the programs he instituted via external funding are still part of that office. He was the co-PI on the successful, long-term Operation Chemistry literacy program for all levels of teachers, and parlayed that national program into grant-funded summer and year-round workshops in Wisconsin, Nebraska, and North Carolina over a 15- year period.
