21. Advantages of this Approach ❖ Reinforcement occurs in different classes and subjects ❖ Little overlap, students learn something new every session ❖ Easily customizable to specific assignments ❖ …but some parts are the same for all students

22. Remaining Challenges ❖ Our in-class appearance is still a one-shot ❖ Students can encounter the scaffold “out of order” ❖ RSP and CIHI require more promotion ❖ Minimal reinforcement beyond freshman year ❖ How can we assess student learning outcomes?
