Then, the job description was aggregatedto a data frame for analysis based on organization domain, roles, life cycle phase, tools, andmethodologies.

Studies have already shown that graduate students can besuccessful in a co-teaching role, plus they benefit from mentored experience towards a career in academia[8],[17]. As co-teachers, graduate students can potentially relate closer to the students in that classroomgiven how recently they endured through a similar learning experience for those topics.

Intentional grouping involves several differenttools that help teachers ensure student success.

This early exposure is also useful in understanding connectionsbetween coursework related to mathematics, science, and liberal arts. For example, a pilot studyfound that students who were introduced to neuroscience in the context of health sciencespossessed an increased knowledge and awareness of the growing concerns related to mentalhealth issues [2]. Another study found that students who pursued higher education in STEMreported having an early personal connection to their field through a family member or friendwith a career in STEM [3].
