Update 4/2/17

Work accomplished:
We started the experiment on Monday and we began collecting data. For the first week of the experiment the instructors will use traditional attendance-taking methods.  One of the classes used a "quiz" method -- the instructor hands out a piece of paper with questions on it at the beginning of class, and collects them at the end of class. The other class used an attendance sheet method, where a piece of paper is passed around and students write their name. The data we collected this past week looks promising.

Goal:
This week we will begin using our system. I will also begin working on the poster that we will present at New Mexico Tech's Student Research Symposium (SRS).

Outcome:
I have learned what it is like to be a researcher in a classroom environment.
