ofaccomplishment and empowerment.Augmented Reality (AR) enables virtual objects to be embedded into the physical world in realtime, and its applications are almost limitless. In the past, this technology has been confined tospecialized laboratories, primarily because the equipment necessary to support these kinds ofenvironments was prohibitively expensive. In addition, developing meaningful AR applicationsrequired a broad, yet deep, set of computing skills. As such, initial experimentation was reservedexclusively for advanced graduate research. Similar to other paradigms, these constraints arebeing removed, providing educators an opportunity to introduce AR at the undergraduate level.AR environments encompass many educational approaches that have been

PredictionsAbstractThe early prediction of student performance has long been a significant area of interest withinthe educational research community. Numerous studies have sought to identify students whostruggle early in their courses, with the goal of providing timely interventions. This earlydetection of at-risk students is vital for fostering and promoting student success, which is criticalto the missions of higher-education institutions and their long-term goals of improving studentgraduation and retention rates.This paper builds on the predictive models from a previous paper, focused on making earlycourse-based predictions of student performance based on data collected from a LearningManagement System (LMS). It describes these models, augments them with
data and also acts as a central repository for all assessmentinformation required for ABET. The goal of this project is to elicit and specify requirements forthis project.Project 2: Dynamic documentation for data-navigator E-funds Data-Navigator is an online toolthat automates the still mostly manual functions of transaction research, exception management, Page 7.748.7custom reporting and continuous settlement in the EFT (Electronics Fund Transfer) domain.
