LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY Our study was conducted exclusively at a single private university with a strong focus on research in the southern region. This specific setting encompassed a particular instructional approach and curriculum sequence. The sample size employed in the study was relatively small, consisting of only six participants from each section of OC1 and OC2. Due to 530 this limited sample size and the single institutional context, caution should be exercised when generalizing the findings to a broader population of students or different educational settings.
