IntroductionIn the College of Engineering at NC State University, measures of student success such asretention, matriculation, and graduation rates had remained largely unchanged for decades. Abenchmark study, and review of the literature, on student success in undergraduate engineeringeducation revealed several practices not adopted within the college. From this insight a set ofprocesses/programs aimed at pre-college, first-time fulltime, and transfer students weredeveloped into the

This isespecially problematic when considering preferences in approaches and cultural differences thatmay further contribute to how each population best performs. For example, many design featuresof software are considered exclusionary for females, based on gender differences in motivationsto use the software or in willingness to accept risks [31]. There are also differences in technicalinterview performance (time to solve and correctness) when the setting is public versus private[23].

Accordingto reports from FIU’s AIM website for retention and graduation studies [13], some of theseactions and practices included:1. Changes in grading options – The No Credit (NC) grading option replaced a D or F in any University Core Curriculum course with an NC grade. While NC grades may be considered a negative impact on retention and graduation, they are less detrimental to a student’s success than Fs. Using the NC policy as an intervention helps bring about behavior change and thus increases the number of returning students.2.

Most new educatorslearn to teach effectively through trial and error and have little or no formal training in bestpractices of education [3].
