So, for example, in the case of thecalculus readiness test scores of incoming engineering students, √ s = (17.14 − 17.44)/(4.63/ 278) = −1.07 > −1.96,therefore the hypothesis is accepted. By similar analysis, in each case (save one) ofhomeschooled students’ test scores (both for incoming and graduated students), the

Crowley et al. also explicitly addressed empathy, recognizing itas a “foundational component of emotional intelligence.” Notably, while Welker andCarlson’s and Crowley et al.’s papers treat empathy respectively as a framework forengineering students’ moral and emotional development, neither one cites sources thatexplain the theoretical underpinnings of empathy. The lack of reference to academic sources on empathy lasted for a few more years,during which time a number of papers appeared in ASEE that explore the role of empathyin communication, teamwork, and design, and yet authors of these papers

-regulate bymaintaining a common in-class schedule and suggested due dates.There are, however, several potential issues related to a flexible deadline approach. The first isthe planning fallacy, where learners underestimate the time it takes to complete a task [3]. Ifflexible deadlines are in place, students may not undertake the requisite self-regulating strategiesin order to complete the assignments. Another potential issue with relaxed deadlines is thetendency for students to mass (cram) their work in very few study episodes just before thetasks(s) are due. Citing several works, Fulton et al. [3] note that distribution of practice (i.e.,more frequent deadlines) results in better performance across a wide range of tasks.In our experience
