Parents instill in theirchildren habits and methods for remembering that help propagate important aspects of theirculture. Indeed, the “I” often internalizes values and beliefs from important others, including notonly parents but also friends and mentors [15], [18]. As Thorne puts it, “families and friendscollude in self-making” [16], [10].Life stories can also be influenced by more intentional interventions. Studies have shown thatpeople who write their life stories can experience an increase in self‐esteem [17], improvedmental health and well-being [18], [19], and a greater sense of agency and control over their lives[20].

Nearly 50 students havingearned their master’s of science degrees via the online program.

The opportunityto offer peer feedback further exposes students to the rules and expectations for conceptmapping. This scaffolding approach is expected to improve the quality of the pre- and post-evaluation of the concept maps during module implementation.Furthermore, reflective writing is a useful tool for having students reflect on their personalexperiences while surprisingly teaching students empathy.

The implementation of COVID protocols around socialdistancing and sharing of objects alone introduce difficulties to the active learning methods thatcharacterize a flipped class. While working on problem solving or completing in-class exercises,social distancing limits the ability of the instructor to provide one-on-one guidance and critique.Social distancing can also limit student group work and collaboration, which reduces the benefitsgarnered from peer-to-peer teaching.

Common STEM barriers include a lack ofmentors and role models; lack of awareness and understanding of STEM opportunities; and lackof academic preparation for STEM degree programs. Societal and cultural biases favor somecareers (nursing and teaching, for example) over others (e.g., engineering and science) forwomen, meaning fewer women pursue certain STEM fields.

Aspects of self-regulated learning also affected students’ online learning attitudes [13]. Thosestudents who better self-regulate their studies by managing their time properly, being conscious oftheir learning and social behavior, being critical in examining course content, and persevering inunderstanding the learning material are most likely to better perform online [19]. On the other hand,research reveals that an online environment presents multiple barriers to self-directed learning.
