Abstract

Understanding the dynamics of mental health among undergraduate students across the college years is of critical importance, particularly during a global pandemic. In our study, we track two cohorts of first-year students at Dartmouth College for four years, both on and off campus, creating the longest longitudinal mobile sensing study to date. Using passive sensor data, surveys, and interviews, we capture changing behaviors before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides. Our findings reveal the pandemic's impact on students' mental health, gender based behavioral differences, impact of changing living conditions and evidence of persistent behavioral patterns as the pandemic subsides. We observe that while some behaviors return to normal, others remain elevated. Tracking over 200 undergraduate students from high school to graduation, our study provides invaluable insights into changing behaviors, resilience and mental health in college life. Conducting a long-term study with frequent phone OS updates poses significant challenges for mobile sensing apps, data completeness and compliance. Our results offer new insights for Human-Computer Interaction researchers, educators and administrators regarding college life pressures. We also detail the public release of the de-identified College Experience Study dataset used in this paper and discuss a number of open research questions that could be studied using the public dataset.

A k-12 college partnership
SIGCSE '10: Proceedings of the 41st ACM technical symposium on Computer science education

To combat the decline of teaching computing courses in high schools, a plan was created to offer professional development (in both content and pedagogy) to high school computing teachers, and to have college faculty partner with those high school ...
The Persistent Effect of Pre-College Computing Experience on College CS Course Grades
SIGCSE '18: Proceedings of the 49th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education

Many college computer science majors have little or no pre-college computing experience. Previous work has shown that inexperienced students under-perform their experienced peers when placed in the same introductory courses, and are more likely to drop ...
Experience and Qualifications: A Study on Attributes of Teacher Professionalism
ICIEI '18: Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Information and Education Innovations

Student outcome at the secondary school level is a significant aspect to study as students' knowledge base is prepared which helps them for stream selection. Therefore, it is essential for secondary teachers to be sound not only academically but also ...
