Paper ID #17067WORK IN PROGRESS: Data Explorer – Assessment Data Integration, An-alytics, and Visualization for STEM Education ResearchJoshua Levi Weese, Kansas State University Josh Weese is a PhD candidate in the department of Computer Science at Kansas State University. Fo- cusing on education research, this experience comes from work as a graduate teaching assistant, various outreach programs, and time spent as a NSF GK-12 fellow. His downtime is spent in outreach programs aimed toward enriching local K-12 students’ experience in STEM, especially in computer science and sensor technologies.Dr. William H. Hsu, Kansas

The latter is crucial to a student of engineering as he mustbe able to identify and operate equipment relevant to his discipline. The use of traditionallaboratories in curricula however presents educators with unique attendant challenges. Notableamong these is the chronic underfunding of higher institutions of learning particularly indeveloping countries such as Nigeria4, 14. This is compounded by the rising cost of laboratoryequipment and increasing student enrollment, which implies an increase in the amount oflaboratory space required to handle the large student populations. Furthermore, some items ofequipment are so sensitive and expensive that they cannot be made

equilibriumIntroductionEngineering students are often adept at solving highly defined problems such as the forces in thetrusses of a bridge, but falter when asked to solve a more open-ended problem and to describethe concepts involved. Further, students who are studying bioengineering may not beintrinsically motivated to analyze bridges and cranes and are more inspired by biological- andmedical-related problems. Bioengineering nationally attracts a more diverse pool of students thanhas been historically observed in engineering as a whole (Hill 2002, Hill 2002). To encouragecuriosity and increase students’ conceptual understanding of static equilibrium, we developedand implemented an open-ended project in our introductory biomechanics course.The formation of the project was
