Based on a quick analysis of our data, most people agree that more discussionshould take place regarding climate change and that our youth should be taught more on thesubject. If local and statewide politicians listen to these opinions and implement these changes,this should lead to an increase in trust for the older generations, ultimately leading to support fordecarbonization pathways for the cement industry in Oklahoma. 8.

Learning goals exhibit autonomous motivationcharacteristics because people are motivated by an internal value of the work [12]. Likewise, thebenefits of multiple goals are closely related to Integrated Regulation, a subcategory of controlledmotivation that shares characteristics of both control and autonomous motivation [12]. Another factor that affects the motivation of individuals is the complexity of the work andthe relatedness they feel with the work they participate in [16].

His music was stored and controlled by a laptop. Thishad several drawbacks. First, he had to stay at the table with the laptop to start or mix anymusic; he wanted to have options to control the music with a hand-held device, like a smartphone. Another concern was the vagaries of the PC operating system: if the computer needed tore-boot, or had other problems with software, the

This teaching approachencourages students to gain the required base knowledge of a concept prior to class through short“mini-lecture” videos or other preparatory exercises. The great potential for this approach is thatit provides instructors with the opportunity to reimagine and redesign the in-class experience tocreate a more active learning environment.Recently, this approach was applied to the teaching of an electric and magnetic fields course aspart of the second-year electrical and computer engineering curriculum at the University ofToronto, which is a large
