This webtool allows users to import a plan of study as a spreadsheet, visualize theprerequisite networks inherent in the course organization, and calculate the structural propertiesof the network that impact student persistence. As shown through experimentation [e.g., 2,8] andempirical work [e.g., 5], there is a negative correlation between curricular complexity andcompletion rates.Because of the new insights that quantifying a curricular structure could bring, authors havebegun using the curricular complexity framework to assign values to the accessibility ofcurricula [e.g., 9,10,11

TO9D attempts to accomplish this goal through focusing development efforts on products that either allows people to earn their way out of poverty or allow people to spend less time, money and/or effort on the necessities for life. Among the products developed to date are: • Solar-powered flashlight for nighttime illumination (replacing kerosene lamps) • Low-cost drip irrigation and water storage systems (for locations with both rainy and dry seasons) • Donkey carts (for material deliveries in roadless areas) TO9D is now accepting proposals for new products

While at Towson University, he also cultivated good friendships with his advisors and now mentors: Dr. Rajeswari M. Kolagani and Dr. David Schaefer. His research led to his first publication a few years later. Forced by destiny, he ended up at Norfolk State University where he is now pursuing a PhD degree in Material Science focusing on optical characterization of materials for energy harvesting. Through the IGERT fellowship, he is pursuing his ultimate goal of becoming a professor and intends to carry on research in optical materials. - See more at: https://www.asee.org/public/person#sthash.lcrL5s3P.dpufMr. IRVING

However, it is still not wellunderstood exactly what factors affect persistence in undergraduate STEM majors andwhere the focus should be placed in order to improve persistence.
