Based on the responses to questions 10 to 12 in figure 4, one ofthe key concerns such as diverse views and inclusiveness during the virtual teaching environmentwere addressed and handled well by our teaching approach. In figure 4, over ninety percent of thesurvey participants satisfied by the way we handle the situations. Since this is pioneering work ofthis type of teaching, no prior data is available to compare the improvement in students'interactions and experiential learning; this aspect needs to be assessed in the future. The approachcertainly helped them to understand the importance of interactive and experiential learning. Thisstudy is only a sample; additional studies are needed to reach

Thesechanges were designed to give students hands-on engineering experiences and engage them withpracticing engineers. The department introduced a new required integrated design sequence forthe first, second, and third-year students [3], [4]. The new design sequence complements theexisting year-long, industry-sponsored senior design experience. The circuits andinstrumentation courses were replaced with a lab-focused, two-course sequence combiningcircuits and instrumentation curriculum [7].

The most pressing challenge for these courses in an online-onlyenvironment was ensuring students access to essential equipment and materials to design andconstruct a physical prototype. In general, programs responded to this challenge in one of threeways: (1) abandoning physical prototyping for an entirely “paper design” project; (2) requiringstudents to purchase third party construction

[7], and helps further indicate a necessity forincluding role ethics and CSR as part of engineering ethics curriculum. Teaching CSR to engineering students acknowledges that professional engineers practice ethicswithin a larger societal and corporate framework with distinct roles that can affect ethical action thatengineers can pursue [7]. CSR itself has many weaknesses, and has been accused of having little influenceon daily corporate practices [22], [23], has not been fully internalized by many corporations [24], and is notclearly linked to engineering [15].

. Researchers have used a rangeof approaches to categorize students’ questions, varying in complexity depending on the contextin which student questions were being solicited (e.g., [2], [3]). Marbach-Ad and Solokove [4]used a large sample of questions generated by biology students to develop a six-level, "semi-hierarchical” taxonomy based on question sophistication. Encouragingly, their work also showsthat students are able to pose more high-quality questions after being instructed in the taxonomyfor classifying the quality of their questions [5]. This approach has also been adapted forclassifying questions asked by physics students as part of a written reflection on their learning[6].Along with explanatory question taxonomies, question-asking can be

Engineering educators are observing significant shifts in societal expectationsof the engineering profession to help address immediate and longer-term sustainable developmentchallenges. According to the World Federation of Engineering Organizations (WFEO),engineering plays a significant role in planning and building projects that preserve naturalresources, are cost-efficient, and support human and natural environments [2]. The NationalAcademy of Engineering formulated in 2004 its vision of the engineer of 2020 [3]. This reportoutlines a number of aspirational goals where it sees the
