than 15 years [2-12].Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related shutdowns and restrictions, many faculty concerns,particularly those associated with online instruction were exacerbated, as faculty had to quicklychange their teaching approaches to remote, online, and other hybrid formats. In response tothese concerns, the AIChE Education Division developed a series of Virtual Communities ofPractice open to all chemical engineering faculty members regardless of career phase, title,tenure status, or other classifications. This paper will highlight the genesis of the AIChEEducation Division’s VCP program and describe its impact on faculty members’ professionaldevelopment during the COVID-19 pandemic.Materials and MethodsCreating a virtual community

The demand to move from traditional learningto online learning may be even higher in computing and information technology programs due togrowing enrollment and tight resources. After the outbreak is controlled, the trend to moveonline probably will continue.This paper will cover the experience in online teaching and learning in our Information andComputer Technology Programs. Strategies of converting in-person courses to online courseswill be discussed.2.

Research skills, and increasingly teaching ability, have been coreto the graduate student curriculum, and match the majority of faculty tenure requirements.However, preparation for the service requirement is often overlooked at both the graduatestudent and faculty level. While a small part of the overall tenure package, there is an unspokenpresumption that faculty members will be able to serve effectively and efficiently. In STEMcurricula, the development of interpersonal skills is often overlooked. While this may not be animpediment in research communications, faculty

This may be attributed to multiple factors such as a significant emphasis onmathematics and science in the first two years of engineering curriculum, a strictly sequentialdegree path, and a lack of flexibility in the program requirements [3].The purpose of this work is to detail how a small teaching-focused four-year institutionincorporates undergraduate research opportunities in its academic programs through the use ofindependent studies specifically in the Electrical & Computer Engineering discipline.

Work in Progress: Thematic Analysis of Engineering Students’ Technical WritingAbstractThis study describes the process of thematic analysis within the context of teaching and learningtechnical writing in a materials testing laboratory course. This process involves searchingstudents’ lab reports for their writing mistakes and sorting the relevant extracts into categoriesand identifying themes. Characterization and theme identification are made by analyzingprevious semesters’ reports for a total of 140 lab reports and pre-defining the themes for futureapplications. Observations may be made at each semester that do not fit into any of the pre-defined categories. For this reason, the themes will grow over the course

teaching platforms: Synchronous class sessions could be held using two services supported by the university: Webex and Zoom. Prior to the shutdown, video conferencing was generally used only for meetings and typically only on rare occasions. Only one program (MS Data Science) had taught classes in remote mode using Webex. Class meetings: Although some faculty held classes synchronously, some opted for asynchronous pre-recorded videos, and a few faculty used an intentional flipped course approach. Some faculty also relied upon publicly available (e.g., YouTube) videos. Labs: In the absence of any physical laboratory experiment set ups, many faculty opted to emphasize simulation and analysis of data

Nevertheless, they expressed that it was very challenging to even ask questions inthese virtual teaching platforms. An RP noted that ‘I think in the class, you can actually see eachother and have a conversation about what you’re asking and what you’re trying to say ... you’rekind of, like you ask a question, but its 30 to 40 other students who have questions.” RPs alsomissed the hands-on experiences of STEM learning.
