• Undergraduate Engineering Students’ Beliefs, Coping Strategies, and Academic Performance: An Evaluation of Theoretical Models (2012, background): “From the engineering literature, it was found that many students reported feeling unable to master academic skills associated with highly demanding engineering courses, leading them to drop out of the program (Baillie & Fitzgerald, 2000).”
• Learning dashboards: an overview and future research opportunities (2013, background): “As pointed out by Baillie et al. [48] and Killen et al. [49], there are differences between students and teachers about the perception of learning issues – and therefore the goals and issues that should be supported by learning dashboards.”
