Popis: | Researchers conducted a correlational study utilizing data from a public 4-year institution in Puerto Rico to understand differences in the levels and types of student engagement reported by graduating students, based on gender and major. Findings indicated that graduates from physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, and computing majors perceived a distinct engagement culture, with significantly higher emphasis on higher order learning and report writing, and lower institutional emphasis on providing academic and non-academic support. |
