As a POGIL (Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning) researcher, I investigated the effects the program had on a general chemistry class.Consolidated data using Excel, and performed an ANOVA analysis which showed that teams which allowed all individuals to participate expressed the lowest amount of tension.Presented results at state-wide undergraduate research conference and personally answered individual questions about the findings.
