On the importance of learning through experiencing small successes in playing theguitar, Greg commented: “You start really slowly and it doesn't sound good at all, but eventually you get the calluses on your fingers, you work over time, you get more coordination, you learn how to read tablature on the internet, that's what I learned from. Then you just get more confidence in yourself and it just builds on itself.”This negative case serves to re-affirm that the causal mechanism is closely related tomotivational constructs such as self-efficacy. Had the small successes not lead to buildingconfidence and interest, Greg would have likely quit learning to play the guitar.RQ3: Comparisons Across

How do students describe grades and their experienceswith prevailing grading practices and assessment strategies, as documented in literature?

Additionally, a sense of belonging iskey to one connecting with their classmates, their community, and eventually their profession[4]. This sense of belonging is not only invaluable to fostering connection and identity, it is alsokey to motivation and resilience [6].Lack of belonging negatively impacts students’ academic performance as well as theirengineering identity.
