primary learning material for this module is a video I created entitled Radium Girls:Silent Death. As a part of the “radium craze,” in the 1920’s in Ottawa, IL (as well in New Jerseyand Connecticut) a group of women worked at a factory painting watch dials using radium paint.Many of the women were taught (though the companies would deny it) to lip, dip, paint, that is toput the brush in their mouths to sharpen the bristles, dip the brush in the paint laced with radium,paint as many numbers on dials as they could before lipping the brushes again, starting the processover and over again. They would do this day in and day out. Years later the women developedmysterious illnesses to include loose teeth, lesions and ulcers, anemia, bone fractures, and

, R1institution. All three sections had different instructors and a class size of around 50 students. One of thethree sections implemented a technology that allowed students to connect to a teammate’s computer andshare control of keyboard/mouse, enabling real-time collaborative programming in a normallyindividual programming environment. The other two sections were control sections with no specificimplementation differences. A survey instrument grounded in Burch et al.’s conceptual framework wasdeveloped and distributed at strategic times to measure students’ engagement with their team and in-class programming tasks. Results presented include a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) that supportsthe factor structure of the student engagement survey and an
