A very bad habit, I do admit. I intend to now review it over with a classmate, and do readings that may cover the topics I missed in class. • Look at the corresponding sections in the book(s) that I missed, and Google anything I’m unsure about. • I generally ask the professor what I miss. Then I go home and review the material. If I am confused with any of the material then I’ll come back and ask questions. • Watch topic on You Tube and work through problems on my own

has occurred to document such reasonsthere are at least two significant studies that help inform program developers. The first was Scottet al.’s 2004 report30 investigating motivations of students in business, engineering and educationprofessional doctorate programs. More recently Wellington & Sikes31 addressed the sameresearch question. Notably, the latter researchers observed, as did Humphrey & McCarthy32 in1999, that doctoral students “no longer form a homogeneous population” (p.725). Among themotivations were: renewal, personal satisfactions e.g., overcoming challenges, becoming excep-tional, a differentiator from the MBAs, work demands, the flexibility of such programs, i.e., aperceived difference from what some perceived as

acknowledge a limitation of our analysis. We recognize that such groupgrade-setting meetings are very likely not the norm for courses in the calculus sequence,in other courses that serve as pre-requisites for engineering, or in engineering courses. Inthis sense, we would not expect our findings to generalize to the specific ways in whichstudents are “weeded out” at other institutions. At the same time, we believe that ourstrategy of analyzing practical dilemmas of grading and sorting, whether this work iscarried out individually or in groups, is a potentially productive one in understandingideological aspects of success and failure.Bibliography1.
