will draw on research team meeting notes, formative feedback survey responses, andnarrative reflections from URFs to support our claims. Research leads also share theirperspectives on recruiting, onboarding and working with the URFs and describe some of themacro-ethical considerations that motivated their partnership with URFs [4, 5].Dr. Turpen and Dr. Radoff, the research leads, and a subset of URFs (K. Rahman, S. Bikki, K.Adkins, and H. Sangha) collaboratively developed this paper. We organize our findings into threeparts; we describe: (a) the multiple ways the research leads benefited from this collaboration, (b)the multiple ways the URFs have benefited from this collaboration, and (c) the joint workprocesses and routines within our
prototyping activities. The specifics of theproject appear to influence the general way that students engage with the design process.However, in both projects, many students engaged in the studying the brief and planning theprocess steps, which is more characteristic of expert designers. Based on our results, wehypothesize that the nature of the materials selection process may prompt students to engage inthese crucial knowledge gaining steps.References[1] H. Mahajan, S. M. Naik, S.

In this case since we don’t have any prior knowledge about the distribution of theparameters 𝛽𝛽0 and 𝛽𝛽1, we model 𝜃𝜃 as normally distributed with mean 0 and the standarddeviation σ: 𝜃𝜃~𝑁𝑁(0, σ). On average, these priors will yield Pr( 𝐸𝐸 ≤ 69) = Pr( 𝐸𝐸 > 69) = 0.5,i.e., equally likely, indicating self-reported study habits are equally likely to predict bothoutcomes.MethodsA.

semester.Our results suggest that PLTL in Calculus 1 strongly supports student success, with particularlystrong gains for students typically underrepresented in engineering. While the focus ondeveloping problem-solving skills and engagement with course content is important, intentionalcommunity-building to foster peer connections that lead to mutual academic support appears tobe a crucial aspect of these gains. Thus, linking PLTL to a LC or incorporating intentionalcommunity-building directly into early PLTL sessons will help maximize achievement gains.References[1] J. A. Middleton, S. Krause, S. Maass, K.
