The design equations results were initially published in a paper in 2015[6] and laterin a book[7].The primal objective function, Y(x), is to minimize production costs which are: Y(x) = r1x1 + r2x2 (18)Subject to the Cobb-Douglas production constraint, which is: q = A x1α x2β (19)The variables are: The input constants

LMS andGoogle Scripts were excellent resources and many components of our tools were informed byprior work. Before starting any similar project, it is a good idea to check whether someone hasalready done part or all of it, or whether the LMS is planning to implement a similar feature inthe near future.Overall, this project has proven valuable in saving faculty time on grading, course administrationprocesses, and facilitating career-advancing research projects. We have been pleased with ourresults and encourage others to seek or develop their own process improvements and synergies.We are also happy to share our tools upon request.6. References[1] V. J.

The 2020-2021 pilot showed us that parentswere keen on the activities but challenged to participate regularly, thus including theirknowledge and experience on the leadership team along with additional interview efforts willprovide new perspectives on the design of the events and participation challenges. This will helpus attenuate the sessions to better serve more of the families. We also anticipate that with a returnto in-person events, the participation in research activities (surveys, feedback, and interviews)will improve. We will also be able to better capture photographs and observations of the designand discussion processes. With the

.Therefore, the results presented in this paper do not address the specific challenges due to theCOVID pandemic. However, some of the outcomes of disruptive effects of COVID-19 in highereducation were seen in the student answers even before the pandemic, mainly in the area ofmental health and the need for strong support systems. When analyzing responses from WE, WS,and ME regarding current and needed support systems, it was noted that WS reported a greaterneed for mental health/stress management support (40.0% WE; 55.2% WS; 36.4% ME) thanmen and WE.
