1 Percentage of students repeating lower-division Math and Physics CoursesFor students who pass their lower-division courses and continue pursuing a STEM field, thisdoes not often translate into success in math-intensive engineering courses. Figure 2 shows thepercent repetition rate for various lower and upper-division ECS courses. Many courses acrossECS consist of repetition rates above 20%. This alludes to students not retaining the materiallearned in their previous pre-requisite courses, and consequently, students continue to repeatcourses and extend their graduation date as reflected in the graduation trends in 4, 5, 6-yeargraduation rates, shown in Figure 3. Although the 4-year graduation rate has consistently stayedat 5% since 2009

This method requires students to apply theoretical knowledge obtained throughcoursework and lectures to solve a given problem as specified by the instructor. In some cases,the instructor may provide a model design solution that the students can reference as they devisetheir own answer to the provided prompt [5]. Professors act as facilitators of this process,guiding students to resources where appropriate and providing students with the tools necessaryto shape their design approach.This model progresses through three main stages: the development of a prototype, testing andredesign, and then reflection on the task, culminating in the creation of a report

The instrument was originallydesigned to assess the levels of teachers’ self-confidence in teaching science topics, as well astheir general beliefs about whether teachers have an influence on student learning outcomes. Theinstrument consists of two scales, the Personal Science Teaching Efficacy Belief scale, WySLICEYear 1 PD Preliminary Survey, and the Science Teaching Outcome Expectancy scale and uses a5-point Likert scale with response categories: ”strongly agree,” ”agree,” ”uncertain,” ”disagree,”and ”strongly disagree.” For WySLICE, the questions were modified to reflect efficacy belief andoutcome expectancy for teaching computer

students in engineering education programs have typically been trained through ABET-accredited engineering programs. Despite ABET’s communication requirement, engineeringundergraduate students have limited opportunities to learn to write in their discipline [7]. Often,explicit writing instruction is limited to two courses: one in first-year writing, and one thatfocuses on engineering writing. The other writing engineering students do is integrated implicitlyin design and laboratory coursework. In these contexts, writing practices are often renderedinvisible as students are asked to fill forms, draw sketches, and incorporate appropriate equationsinto reports rather than write essays or reflections [6].

The abrupt and emergency nature of the transition to ERT (hereafter called remotelearning) has led to the notion that the quality of higher education decreased as a result of thepandemic. But, at the present time, insufficient evidence is available to assess to what degreehigher education and learning may have been compromised by the shift to remote learning.
