We hopethis approach might resonate with people using assessment data to inform goals for improvedperformance. We use a two-tailed student t-Test to identify any significant gaps between PS reported byfemale and male students and between underrepresented minorities (URM) and non-underrepresented minorities (Non-URM). In each gap analysis, the null hypothesis is that themeans between the two groups are similar. We use the t-Test on the Spring 22 data because ofthe sample size. For the Fall 22 data, we use the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum method [15] to test if

The literature I reviewed on happiness and productivity in general shows a correlationbetween the two. Zelenski, Murphy, and Jenkins’ research on the happy-productive workerthesis found happy workers to be more productive; and that positive affect had a strongrelationship with productivity [4]. Similarly, Oswald, Proto, and Sgroi concluded that happinessmakes people more productive [3]. This conclusion was informed by their research that showedrandomly-selected people a clip from a comedy movie, then measuring their productivity on astandardized task. Their productivity was then compared to the productivity of a control groupwho did

research design. Therefore, we find various studiesdemonstrate the importance of teaching research design to engineering students [17],[18].The rationality model is one of the most well-known decision-making models. Therefore, itbecomes necessary to look at it in-depth to understand it better. Below are the fourcomponents of the rationality model of decision-making: a. Intelligence: when to make a decision b. Design: analysing earlier actions, making possible plans c. Choice: choosing the best possible plan based on merit d. Review: assessing past choicesIt is interesting to note that this model is very similar to the four-part structure of 'researchdesign’ which, being central to innovation, is already a part of the engineering
