effectiveness of the Capstone project course is the course’saverage numerical evaluation across all sections. Each section is reviewed for overall weightedaverage for all questions specific to the course. Then these averages are gathered and averaged tofind the mean score for the course itself. For academic year 2018-2019, the course averaged 4.11on a 5 scale. This was the transitionary year. In subsequent years, 2019-2020 was 3.83, 2020-2021 was 4.03, 2021-2022 was 4.21 and 2022-2023 averaged 4.14 [Table 4]. The evaluations in2022 and 2023 show a slight increase from 2020 and 2021.

Triads and dyads allow the student to move the dot on the triangle (triad) or slider (dyad)to fit their narrative best [19].
