expanded their offerings to international graduate stu-dents beyond residential studies. Advances in teaching and learning technology have played a keyrole in enabling remote instruction to these students. In particular, synchronous instruction andengagement with peers within a cohort have been shown to improve the educational experienceand lead to high persistence rates.It has previously been reported that instructional technology can be used to teach a full master’sdegree program in electrical and computer engineering to international graduate students in a syn-chronous fashion. To increase engagement, students study in the program as cohorts and collab-orate in the classroom and in completing a significant engineering project. This technology

In past semesters, the finalproject of the course has been an open-ended design project where students are encouraged tocreate something using the concepts learned throughout the course. However, curricularlimitations as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have forced the final project to bemore narrow in scope the past two semesters.

Accordingly, some researchers have used time spent on tasks inrelation to performance on tasks as indicators of cognitive flexibility. Another definition is the“selective use of knowledge to adaptively fit the needs of understanding and decision-making ofa particular situation” [1, p. 548]. The latter definition seems appropriate for describing cognitiveflexibility in engineering problem-solving but does not seem to be fully captured by existingmeasures of time spent on task and performance.Guided by CFT, the main goals of our NSF EEC project were to improve students’ abilities toapply sustainable engineering concepts across different problem contexts or
