These existing gaps in ability toeffectively plan a project and manage available time were exacerbated by the move to individualwork, leaving students with less ability in this area feeling anxious and overwhelmed. In thissection, we identify several challenges that arose in relation to time management, including atension between viewing project work as concurrent v. linear, the feeling that more time wouldresult in positive outcomes, and the introduction of classroom-driven and personally-driven toolsto manage time more

In thefinal section of the paper, we discuss two ongoing exemplar projects, not to report findings, butto offer examples of what research designs could look like and the associated data collection andanalysis protocols.Cognitive Neuroscience BasicsSimply stated, cognitive neuroscience focuses on empirical data from both human behavior andthe brain in order to explore human cognition (thinking, planning, decision making) [2]. Thestudy of behavior has a rich tradition in psychology and is strongly rooted in the primacy ofempiricism—that knowledge is built through systematic and objective observation andmeasurement.

In an earlier investigation into what could becausing this drop, the authors identified that students who regretted how they spent their breakperformed worse than their peers who showed no regret, and that inexperienced, strugglingstudents had the highest odds of showing regret [11].Thus, the following year, to mitigate the perceived harmful effects of the fall reading break onthese students, the authors planned an academic and social intervention during the two-day studybreak in fall 2018. During the intervention, instructors and TAs held a collection of one-hourcourse-specific
