This program incorporated scholarship fundsand structural supports to help students successfully navigate their engineering undergraduatedegree program. These supports were chosen with specific target populations in mind, namelylow-income, first-generation, mathematically underprepared, and minority students. The projectteam chose to employ personas in an attempt to create a rubric that allowed for the holistic,subjective, “I know it when I see it” style of selecting students who showed a need for thescholarship program while having a shared vision of what “it” is. This paper presents the methoddeveloped to create this rubric using personas and the experience of the

In particular, the gaming approach utilizing interactive media and/or simulation has beenshown to be effective in improving teaching and learning of various subjects [2]. By reducingpractical learning time for students, and for schools and programs, simulation reduces costs forpractice oriented educational methodology. The simulation-based training reduces the gap between learning environment and “real"environment, and making available training of “real world” situations that are difficult tosimulate in a hands-on lab environment.
