Two of the students in focus group B explained that they have photographed sketches they had made in the technology subject, during a study visit (see Figure 2).

exam, but b only if thheir semesteer grades werre above theeclass average. In our experience, this is very strong motivation for students to do well in thecompetition.One final important point to note is that unlike other mechatronics competitions we have done inthe past, we intentionally formed teams of two students (rather than three or four), which reallyforced all the students to have a hand in the programming of their device. This required us topurchase kits of Makeblock parts for 70 teams, which was a significant up-front investment(~$300/team), but one that we feel is well justified.3.

students see it, a simple switch usually solves it. Allowing the students to select who they might want on the team, or who they do not want on the team can cause poor or even infeasible solutions, student a wants student b, b wants c, but c does not want a. Therefore, best use is to limit this, and create the rule that both must select each other for example. Unbeknownst to the students, the instructor can also match or unmatch students if they know them well enough, very helpful. The output shows where the student schedules overlap, which provides evidence that they can meet based on their input. Overall, the teams have been great.User feedback has helped make gruepr better and easier to use. This

elements or structures are valuable to students in enhancingtheir time management for the enrolled course. A limitation of the reported results is that actualimprovement in time management skill was not measured; rather, the students’ perception ofimprovement was measured. Further study with measures of actual time management skills iswarranted. Further, longitudinal study regarding the persistence of time management skillacquired could elucidate important relationships about transfer of this necessary life skill to othercontexts.

For the thirdmodule, students assessed the watershed on a rotating weekly basis by visiting the field site,analyzing data and writing on a course wiki about their observations. Overall, studentassessment results indicated that students believed exposure to the LEWAS was beneficial forlearning hydrologic concepts.24Table 1 outlines the details of the longitudinal true experimental research design52-53 in thesenior-level Hydrology course.

Student earnestness through the course The average earnestness was calculated for each individual learning question for each college classification. Questions were ordered in our analysis based on the order they were presented to the student. We plotted the averages, and noticed a decline in earnestness as students progressed through questions. Two factors were considered that might have affected student earnestness: ● Tiredness factor: Easy learning questions at the end of the semester may have lower earnestness

authors had studentspredict their performance on the post-video learning task and found that (a) students are in factoverconfident about their learning after watching video-recorded lectures, (b) in-video testingimproves students’ predictions about their actual performance on the learning task, and (c) asingle post-lecture test also helps to adjust unrealistic expectations.28 Therefore, some sort of in-video or post-video testing, or both, is recommended to check viewer expectations about theirown learning.Recommendation #5: When determining an appropriate video length, somewhere in the rangeof 5-15 minutes is recommended.There is no conclusive body of literature on the optimal length of an educational video, but ingeneral shorter is better.

not have a standard deviation, and therefore it was not possibleto identify a correlation for those items in the individual projects. Hence, these cells are markedwith ‘N/A’ in the correlation tables.In the correlational analysis of individual projects (Appendix B), there are similar patterns ofcorrelations for projects 1, 3, and 5, while project 2 and 4 behave more like each other. The maindifference between these two groups of projects is the strong correlation found between problemframing and problem synthesis for the first group of projects (r > 0.6). For the latter group ofprojects (i.e., projects 2 and 4), this coefficient depicts a weak correlation (r < 0.2). Note that theproblem framing phase includes programming skills
