Methodologies for PredictionThrough literature reviews, several modeling methods were found to be employed inprior educational research to predict students’ retention. The most frequently used arelogistic regression, discriminant analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM). Thesethree statistics based methods, plus neural networks from artificial intelligence andmachine learning techniques, were applied to develop retention models in this study.Logistic regression (LR) has been broadly used in educational studies to predict studentretention or graduation status.

Theformat of this problem was left as an open-ended question since our previous efforts had notinvestigated concepts related to covariational reasoning. The mass flow category includedoriginal inventory items developed in this study over a number of iterations with severalengineering instructors and graduate students.

This report concludes that futureengineers will need to “possess a working framework upon which high ethical standards and astrong sense of professionalism can be developed.” To date, most research on ethics educationin engineering has focused on the effectiveness of various pedagogies as measured by in-classassessment of learning. While valuable, these efforts fail to recognize that the best measure ofsuccessful learning of ethical decision-making may be the extent to
