The literature has reported for more thanthree decades the substantial benefits for underrepresented minorities (URM) when engaging inURE. A myriad of recent publications substantiates the importance of URE including increasedconfidence in research and professional skills, enhanced preparation for graduate school, andgreater clarity on future career pathways [4], [5].

Studies have shown that student sense of belonging inthe classroom, major, and institution can positively impact performance in future engineering classes andoverall retention rates. Sense of belonging has been identified as particularly important to the retention ofunderrepresented minorities and females.

Following this, after a waiting period of twoweeks, all students will be given an unannounced pop quiz about the Dayanta, with the resultsbeing compared between the groups to look at the impact of the interactive system on both short-term and longer-term memory. Given this heuristic study, the authors believe this research willcontribute to a better understanding of the use of 3D models and interactive media containingthem in undergraduate instruction.7.
