 The nation wants to graduate 100,000 engineers annually.  We want to retain students who declare engineering as a major and part of the “suggested” solution to the retention problem is to teach Math courses in Engineering.

Students in Mechanical Engineering can take either  MAP2302: Ordinary Differential Equations (MATH ODE) OR  EGN3433: Modeling of Dynamic Systems (ENG ODE)

To measure effect of an online resources on student performance in Numerical Methods for Engineers, we were collecting data such as  pre-requisite course grades, age, gender, transfer status and relating it to  performance in pre-concept test, post-concept test and final examination.

 Is prior academic performance different for students taking the ODE course in engineering over the ODE course in Math?  Is there a difference in the knowledge they gain from ENG ODE and MATH ODE course?  Is the performance in the ODE questions in Numerical Methods final exam different for students taking the ENG ODE and MATH ODE courses?

Is prior academic performance different for students taking the ODE course in engineering over the ODE course in Math? No Statistical Difference Is there a difference in the knowledge they gain from ENG ODE and MATH ODE course? No Statistical Difference Is the performance in the ODE questions in Numerical Methods final exam different for students taking the ENG ODE and MATH ODE courses? No Statistical Difference

Is prior academic performance different for students taking the ODE course in engineering over the ODE course in Math? No Statistical Difference Is there a difference in the knowledge they gain from ENG ODE and MATH ODE course? No Statistical Difference Is the performance in the ODE questions asked Numerical Methods course different for students taking the ENG ODE and MATH ODE courses? No Statistical Difference Uninteresting results or are they?
