based on the data ofparticipation rates have driven the MSU’s PAL program to mutate towards a revised model wehave of a common setting for all PAL courses in recognized and stable locations on campus. Inkeeping with other programs at MSU, we are calling this the “neighborhood approach” to thePAL component. The table in Appendix B shows the chronology of PAL developments at MSUand how the results noted for one semester leads to component changes that follow.Until Fall 2010, we did not have results for objective learning outcomes from PAL/SI. In Fall2010, we reached a stage of stability with the PAL program that supported studying the learningoutcomes for PAL at MSU, and concurrently studying the learning outcomes for SI at LCC.Preliminary

thecorrect way to perform an engineering design process, but it strips away opportunities by notallowing students to be more engaged and learn by doing it themselves. Students in theapprentice model learn by observing, while students in the autonomous model learn by doing.Furthermore, as these groups of students continue to develop, we can suggest that those whoparticipated in a more heavily mentor team may become dependent and mold into a teammember, whereas a student who participated in a less mentorship team is more likely to becomeindependent and develop into a team leader.

Simply put, the model suggeststhat academic motivation is influenced by perceived competence beliefs (“Can I do this task?”)and beliefs about the worth of the task (“is this task useful/interesting/etc?”). The model predictsthat student motivation for engineering is influenced by both students’ expectancy for successand their values.
