At the first onset of the pandemic in Spring of 2020, and knowingwhere it was going, academic institutions fully transitioned to a remote instructional mode tosustain everyone's well-being. In this paper, we try to understand the critical differences in studentexpectations on the

received his B.E. degree in Electronics and Electrical Communications Engineering in 2009, and his M.Sc. degree in Engineering Physics in 2012, both from the Faculty of Engineering at Cairo University. In 2019, he received a Ph.D. from the Electrical and Computer Engineering department of the University of Pittsburgh, in developing optical fiber sensors for monitoring harsh environments. Since 2019, he has been appointed as an Assistant Professor in the same department of the same school. Zaghloul is a recipient of multiple research and teaching awards, and since 2016 he has been appointed to the Postgraduate Research Program at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) administered through Oak Ridge Institute

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 A Survey-Based Study of Students’ Perspective on Different Remote Teaching Styles During COVID-19AbstractAfter the outbreak of the coronavirus in early 2020, most educational institutions worldwide hadto rapidly switch to online learning as a precautionary measure. The sudden change in the teachingstyle had left both the instructors and the students with a lot to do in just a short period of time.Many challenges and obstacles in the new learning environment hindered the

addition to hands-on skills, students gained confidence to participate in research and anappreciation for interacting with and learning from peers. Finally, responses with respect toGSTT performance indicated a perceived emphasis on a learner-centered andknowledge/community-centered approaches over assessment-centeredness [13].Overall, student feedback indicated that SCL teaching strategies can enhance student learningoutcomes and experience, even over the short timeframe of this module. Studentrecommendations for module improvement focused primarily on modifying the lecture contentand laboratory component of the module, and not on changing the teaching strategies employed.The success of this module exemplifies how instructors can implement

the Foundry [1], research teamscan effectively integrate ideas via diverse perspectives through knowledge acquisition andknowledge transfer iterations wherein innovation can be effectively achieved in variousorganizations. An example of this is illustrated in Arce [4] through the development of the PIT. Inthat work, the application of the Foundry to the transformation of the computational teachingapproach for engineering students from a static, antiquated and fixed laboratory to a flexible,mobile model (i.e., MoLE-SI), was illustrated [4]. As part of this process, and prior to itsimplementation, this concept required a draft of a proposal to (successfully) request funds as well assubmit and defend the proposal to move the project forward
