An alternative approach to such a course hasthe students learning a single process very well, thus “learning what is takes to learn” a newprocess. This knowledge can then be applied to any process encountered. Senior students inMiami University’s Manufacturing Engineering program were given the opportunity

A prediction model is developed based onregression analysis and is used to predict students' final course grades based on their activitiesearly in the semester. In general, a predictive model needs a refined and standardized data set inorder to achieve meaningful results. The data set used for the grade prediction includes students'performance in the formative and summative assessments during the first four weeks of thesemester as well as their class participation and homework completion.
