The following steps were taken in such transformation.Revision of the course learning outcomesIn the transition from the on-campus, in-person course in fall 2019 to the online, on-demandcourse in summer 2020, the course learning outcomes for the in-person course were reviewed. Inthe review, we found that most of the outcomes could be transitioned to the on-demand coursewithout modifications. For outcomes involving in-person, in-laboratory experiments, they werenot feasible in that summer term due to campus closure. They were replaced by computer-aidedcontrol

The course covers the CompTIA Security+ requirements andis based on the HyFlex delivery model which was originally developed at San Francisco StateUniversity.This paper discusses how a limited-flexibility model was transformed due to the COVID-19pandemic into a highly flexible delivery model. Specifically, the course went beyond simplyhaving lecture and laboratory components to offering a HyFlex Options Menu where studentsselect between several options for each area of the class. Students were offered the

Some students were part oflarge, established experimental laboratories while other students worked individually or in smallgroups on computational or theoretical projects. As this course was launched in Fall 2020,students in this class experienced the additional challenge of starting college (and undergraduateresearch) remotely during a global pandemic. The design and content of this course wereevaluated using anonymous feedback and a review of reflective discussion posts in order todetermine whether the course supported the stated learning goals. This evaluation indicates thatstudents found the course material helpful in understanding their role as undergraduate researchassistants

Can a Body Do? How We Meet the Built World, the artist, design researcher, and OlinCollege professor Sara Hendren writes, “Engineering is not the science of the laboratory alone…It is fundamentally applied, which means its results live in the world. It belongs to people, notjust as ‘users’ but as protagonists of their dimensional lives” [1, p. 23]. Hendren’s invocation of avision of engineering as radically human-centered provided the philosophical and humanisticcore to our interdisciplinary teaching team as we embarked on designing a new course forfirst-year students at Boston College (BC). Our course, Making the Modern World: Design,Ethics, and Engineering (MMW), situated engineering practice and knowledge within its social,political, and
