,  Discuss the pros and cons of alternative technical solutions, and  Debate possible evolutionary paths for the standard being analyzed.We propose six learning stages with specific learning objective in each stage. These aredescribed in continuation.3.1 ContextThe student needs to get familiar with the standard and the standardization mechanics. Theinstructor thus provides a) A high-level description of the standard with certain details, describing theoretical concepts and employed technologies, identifying relevant working parameters and expected system behaviors, b) The standard specifications and the relationships among the main and auxiliary documents, and c) The introduction to the software framework to be used

& Beilock, 2012). There is a lotof evidence that math anxiety robs individual’s working memory (Beilock & Willingham, 2014).The working memory's "space" or capacity is some fixed amount that varies from person toperson. It is used to solve problems and reason. If part of the working memory is occupied byanxiety, it is taking away from the fixed capacity that can be used to come up with a solution(Beilock, 2008). There is also neurological data that supports these findings (Young, Wu, &Menon, 2012).Attribution: How students attribute their failures and successes is also tightly linked to howstudents perform. A study looked at twelve factors to which most influenced success in acomputer programming course (B. C. Wilson & Shrock

The second problem contains two bridge-puzzles, one easy and the other of mediumdifficulty; please see Figure 1 (b) for example. The puzzle rules are (a) to connect each island,which is represented as a circle, with the number of bridges shown inside the circle; (b) there canonly be two bridges connecting two islands; (c) a bridge must not overlap with other bridges orislands; and (d) there must be continuous link between all islands, which means there cannot beisolated island.

preparation for the oral proficiency exams. The negative skew in the Figure1(b) histogram and the mean quantified value of 2.86 support a moderate increase in studentreported motivation for independence in their work in preparation for the oral proficiency exams.Furthermore, student responses to these two questions are moderately correlated, with a highlysignificant (p-value of 1.91 ´ 10-36) correlation coefficient of 0.635. Thus, students who report anincrease in motivation to achieve a deeper understanding of the material due to the codinginterview intervention are also more likely to report approaching their work with higher levels ofindependence as a result of the oral proficiency exams. The coding interviews
