The assumption of normalitywas tested via examination of the residuals. Review of the Shapiro–Wilk (S-W) test fornormality and skewness and kurtosis statistics suggest whether or not normality was a reasonableassumption. The boxplot of the residuals is analyzed for a relatively normal distributional shape.The Q–Q plot and histogram are also examined for normality.

the 1990’s, there was anational effort to develop programs to involve faculty to train them to use more varied teachingmethods [9]. Previous faculty development programs include SUCCEED and ECSEL Coalitions[10], FOUNDATION Coalition [11], and GATEWAY Coalition [9]. These entities work todevelop and execute professional development programs for faculty to train them in diverse andmodern teaching approaches.One type of program that has shown positive progress is based upon summer workshops orinstitutes for faculty devoted to teaching practices. One example is the National AcademiesSummer Institutes (SIs) [12, 13]. Beginning as a biology summer institute, this program has beenoperating since 2004.
