The mastery goal isvery fluid, as it can change from task to task.23 Research has suggested that adolescent femalesexhibit higher mastery goals, while males typically exhibit higher performance goals.22,23 This canbe detrimental for males if their focus shifts too heavily toward maintaining their public imagerather than learning the material.22 Females focus more heavily on mastery of the material toincrease their self-efficacy perception over time.22,24 However, females are also inherently exposedto a “stereotype threat”. Stereotype threats are the feeling of judgement by peers based on societalstereotypes.16,25 This phenomena causes students to fear doing poorly for the fact that they feelthey may be thereafter

First, participants were asked to recall the reasons that they participate inout-of-class activities and write the reasons on a blank paper. This step allowed the participantsto recall their decision-making processes freely. Second, participants read the Q-set and, if any oftheir reasons were not on the cards, use one blank card per missing reason to record each missingreason. These new reasons formed the basis of new items.    Third, participants sorted Q-set 1 into three groups: ‘yes’ (this is a reason that I participate in out-of-class activities), ‘maybe’ (this may be a reason that I participate) and ‘no’ (this is not a

Asian American participants with Chinese heritages face lesscultural challenges than their non-Asian peers when going to China for research collaboration orstudy. However, our research found several unique challenges for this specific population. Onemajor challenge came from the “Chinese common knowledge” expectation they received fromChinese people. Another main challenge stems deeply and powerfully from inside themselves:the rediscovery of their self-identity.In our study, several Asian American participants agree that Chinese people’s expectation thatthey are “Chinese” because of their appearance create unexpected cultural challenges ordiscomforts that the other ethnic groups often do not face.

Theyare also tasked with responding to the post of one other participant before the start of class. The online preparation for course discussion has a couple of important functions. First, itencourages the students to read the assigned materials. Though certainly students can try toimprovise their way through readings and discussions, having to post their thoughts publicly fortheir peers typically keeps them on task. They also recognize that they will be asked to orallyshare their thoughts in group discussion which similarly keeps them engaged. The onlinepostings help students
