results from the preceding analysis,including further interpretation of the results, and propose some possible explanations.Beginning with demographic variables, Asian students reported stronger beliefs in the value ofcollaborative learning compared to white students. This may reflect cultural differences inlearning styles, or the value placed on group harmony and collective effort. Additionally,Mechanical Engineering (ME) and Industrial Engineering (IE) students showed lowercollaborative learning beliefs compared to their counterparts in Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE). These findings suggest that there may be disciplinary differences in thevalue and integration of collaborative learning in different degree programs.Turning to other

To assess students’learning styles, this study used the Visual, Aural, Read/Write, or Kinesthetic (VARK) learningstyles inventory which is a questionnaire consists of 16 items used to assess the respondent’slearning style [21]. The study also used the Dixion scale to measure students’ engagement usingthe adaptive or non-adaptive e-learning system; this scale includes the factors of skills,participation/interaction, performance, and emotion [21]. This study found that students wholearned through the adaptive system learned more, reflected by their engagement scale responsesand overall course outcomes. While this study does not model the relationship between students’learning styles and intentions to use, has a small sample

incorporated into the class to help students toaddress these questions. The lab experimentation provided students with a hands-on opportunity to assess the biological impact of various biomaterials. Through thisexperiment, students gained practical skills in experimental design, data analysis,and interpretation, fostering a deeper understanding of biomaterials beyondtheoretical concepts. The inclusion of ethical considerations in the biomaterialcurriculum was addressed through a debate. This encouraged students to reflect onthe societal implications of biomaterials research, fostering a sense of responsibilityand ethical awareness among future practitioners.The study employed both qualitative and quantitative assessment methods,including pre- and post

Because… we don't have a lot of resources anyway.” (Professor 9, Donnybrook)This sentiment is reflected in other studies that note it is often unclear what departments areresponsible for specific aspects of graduate student services within universities [16, 17].Recommendations and ConclusionsThere were a number of recommendations that arose from the opinions offered by faculty andstudents during their interviews.

Attempting to figure out howbest to convey a topic in a novel manner is a very difficult task when you have never doneanything like this before. Making sure each game is unique and also does not detract from thelesson is a difficult balancing act. In addition, many classes are limited in the amount of time thatcan be spent on instructing how best to play the game at the expense of the time that can beallotted to playing said games.In addition, games have a habit of “running

partially focused ontesting or proving that all three domains are connected in the overall learning process -- they areconnected [17]. It found all the domains to be correlated when evaluating students’ learning,meaning more research should be conducted on how to better connect all three domains in a classstructure for deeper understanding, the rest of their findings predominately relate to the affectiveand psychomotor domain [17]. This idea is directly echoed in another report finding that all threedomains need to be intentionally integrated into a class for more effective learning [10]. This ideathat the domains are connected is reflected in the fact that many studies focus on two domains ata time instead of only one domain at a time [4-5], [10
