Scientific paper

We report on a two part study designed to understand why some students struggle in the introductory course. We first collected numerical data on students' reasoning skills (Lawson Test), math skills, attitudes (CLASS Test), and various other personal attributes such as time spent studying or hours working on a job. Math skill, reasoning skill and some attitude measures were correlated with course performance. The following semester we identified and interviewed students on the extremes of these significant measures in order to better understand how and why the significant factors relate to course performance.
