the University of Virginia (UVA), a hybrid model was adopted. Students were giventhe option to take the class 100% remotely, or they could attend lab in person every other week.During the second week of the semester, entire sections met online for team forming. Thoughsome attempt was made to group in-person students in the same team, several teams had a mixof in-person and remote students. The curriculum was redesigned into two-week blocks. Duringthe ‘on’ week, students collected data from an experiment they performed in person or watchedvirtually. During the ‘off’ week, they worked in teams on various activities including report peerreview workshops, a team project, and post-processing of the previous week’s experiments. Thispaper will

The feeling of alienation could result in students developingdropout intention for an engineering/computer science degree.Research experiences are an excellent tool to promote and foster engagement among engineeringand computer science students. They provide an avenue to collaborate with faculty and build aclose relationship with their teachers or professors. Choosing to engage in research activities isconsidered a voluntary activity and conducting research gives a student the avenue or platform toexplore his / her ideas on inventions or discoveries to make a significant contribution to

It is often espoused as an essential skill byengineering employers [4] but generally not reified or taught within undergraduate engineeringeducation.Current approaches to fostering adaptability in engineering emphasize experiential learningopportunities such as team-based projects, co-op/internships, and undergraduate research.However, these activities seldom provide formal adaptability training, and whether they nurtureor merely test adaptability is unclear. This project calls for adaptability to be explicitly taughtand assessed, much like other professional skills such as communication and ethics that havebeen added to ABET criteria [5

Computer occupations play a critical role in STEM.The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projected that about 600,000 or 67% of all new jobs inSTEM between 2018 and 2028 would be in computing. Average annual openings in computeroccupations during the decade were projected to be about 450,000 [2].

AbstractCovid – 19 has radically changed how group activities are carried out across the world especiallyin countries with higher incidence of the disease, like the US. An activity of concern to theeducators is face-to-face teaching in classroom, in-lab work, in-person office hours, in-classexams and group-based project activities. The Covid-19 epidemic required most educators tomove all these activities online.Given that the flipped and online classes are a common practice in this era of internettechnology, there was no

Here he states that, “The root cause forthe lack of convergence between UAV education and practical application is the absence ofexperiential learning. The UAV experience requires students to develop skills such as … in datareduction, analysis, communication, and teamwork.”This paper presents the first phase of our experience with a two-phase project addressing theteaching, implementation, and assessment of online active learning modules in undergraduateintroduction to engineering and physics courses designed to engross students in the process ofadvanced manufacturing
