Primary Outcomes (End Points) Selected goal grade and course performance (exam and assignment). Selected goal grade and course performance.
Primary Outcomes (Explanation) We will calculate "course performance" by controlling for the course performance of the previous course. This is, we will calculate the performance of each student in the previous course with respect to the average, and then we will do the same in the analyzed course. The difference between these two variables is our "course performance" outcome variable. We will calculate "course performance" by controlling for the grades of the exams and assignments of the students' previous course. Given the information that we have from every student, we will use the non-treated students to find the best way to predict the student's "expected grade". Once we assign an "expected grade" to each student we will calculate: Course performance = actual grade - expected grade
