desirable increases with the use ofALP, with the Innovation dimension seeing the most significant increase (p = 0.007 and d =0.54).One of the other benefits of using an ALP is the significant amount of data it collects aboutstudent behavior and engagement with the course material [6-8]. We used this data to identifyand support potentially lower-performant students (C or lower students) during the first fewweeks of the semester instead of waiting until the sixth week when the first unit test gets gradedfor the class. By the sixth week of the semester, it may be too late for the student to recover fromlow performance on the test due to feeling discouraged or unable to make significant adjustmentsin their approach to academics.2.

With the shift of the risk management paradigm in recent years, holistic views of riskconsidering the socio-economic impact of physical failures, i.e., community resilience, have beendriving studies for innovative risk management solutions in civil engineering. With such aparadigm shift, structural engineers are also increasingly called to consider the broaderimplications of the design levels they adopt for structures and infrastructure.

Each graduate student that leaves her or his program also represents a loss oftalent and lost investment from funding agencies, departments, faculty, and the studentsthemselves. While the lack of a PhD is not a barrier to career success, retention of the PhDworkforce is important for innovation and national competitiveness and is required to broadenparticipation in engineering and the professoriate. Recent reports from the National Academies[3, 4] point to a crisis in graduate education in terms of student preparation and psychosocial well-being, both of which can impact attrition at the doctoral level.We are currently in year 5 of the CAREER grant, with Phase 1A accomplished to date
