Perhaps thiswas because this level of association would require documentation and reflection on theperformance of the positive and negative aspects to capitalize on future projects, and we did notscaffold such reflection.Abstraction and modularization: The ideas included in this evaluation criterion were: a) to detectthe materials or tools necessary for the project, b) to identify the learning scenarios, and c) toacquire new knowledge and inspirations. In most cases, high-level responses are observed perhapsdue to the wide-spread knowledge of the technology used in the construction process and thescaffolded study of the basic parts of the subsystems (sensors

EffortStudent effort is known to be a significant predictor of performance on low-stakes tests [22].During ESO testing, proctors observed that some students testing in-class clicked throughquestions toward the end of the test, reflecting decreasing effort. Results from the ESO showed acorrelation between time spent on the core test components and final core score, suggesting thatstudent effort did impact achievement.However, previous work on PIAAC engagement suggests that the proportion of disengagedrespondents from Canada with educational attainment greater than high school is less than 5%[30]. Only 4.2% of the students in this sample were filtered out because of low time spent ontest, which aligns with this previous evaluation of disengaged

establishing empathy as anecessary addition to the engineering field.Empathy is a component of emotional intelligence that is measurable by most assessments.Reimer makes the case that emotional intelligence, as measured by these scales, is reflective of aperson’s overall communication skills. As such, there may also be a link of these sameemotional intelligence scales to the engineering design process. The effective design processstarts with empathy for the customer as the priority [29].The EQi-2.0 reports 21 scores, which include 15 individual metrics. The individual metrics aregrouped into five composite scores and a total score. These scores set up the basis for thecomparison of the development of the student to their process of solving an open

Another supporting action ca be using a designedceiling geometry configuration that can help to diffuse daylight instead of the conventional flatceilings.The mixed overhang/light shelf became as one horizontal surface, as shown in Fig.11. Oneachievable method to tackle this issue is to take advantage of a white reflective coating on thetop layer of the light shelf finish material. By implementing this strategy, 50% of the floor areaachieved adequate daylighting, which means an additional 30% of the spaces have sufficientdaylighting.

The net result of this achievement gap is a delayed graduation rate. Figure 3 shows the 4-,5- and 6-year graduation rates for URM and non-URM ECS students at CSUF. It appears thatthere is an upward trend over the years in the graduation rate of both URM and non-URMstudents.

These students place themselves at risk of failure because they do not work towards growing in their understanding of mathematics [9]. A person’s dislike for math often occur during the beginning stages of school [9]. Moreover, one’s dislike and uncomfortableness towards math may remain with a person for many years and can lead to a lack in self-confidence by hurting one’s rationale and thoughts [4]. Possessing a fixed mindset can hinder one’s potential for math success as this mindset lacks self-reflection and embracing new ways of learning [3]. A person with a fixed
