For example, Becky observed that most of the students in her major (bioengineering)cohort studied this way: In my major, the most often I would say was the second scenario where you do have a study group but everyone has already attempted to try to do the problems, and then we kind of just go over the problems that we don't quite understand

Regarding academic engagement,students report in interviews that faculty behaviors influence student academic engagement, andthat small adjustments to faculty behavior could improve student engagement. When observingclasses, we observed that lecture still predominates in the engineering classroom; however, weobserved a modified lecture style that was occasionally used, in which we observed a highstudent academic engagement and faculty interaction that typically occurs only in active learningenvironments.
