energybalance equations, pumps and turbines, Navier-Stokes equations, pipe network flows, andopen channel flow. The course includes a laboratory component comprising four physical andtwo computational labs. The format of the course is a flipped classroom with laboratory andrecitations sections taking place every week. However, during the pandemic the majority ofthe activities were on-line with in person interactions occurring whenever possible.The enrollment for Fall 2020 when this course was implemented as an I-course for the firsttime was 72. A series of common interventions for all courses were implemented accordingto the I-standards. The syllabus was modified to declare the course as an I-course andincorporate a personalized inclusivity statement

PBL Laboratories for Youth and Critical ThinkingSupplementing traditional class-based methods of acquiring the first principles of engineeringbroadens the discipline and attracts new problem solvers. For instance, students compete forcoveted spots at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to learn from the profession’sbest engineering, math, and computer science professors. Popular introductory computer scienceclasses have had students seated outside watching on screens as the classrooms are crowded. Theavailability to access has been a mission of the EDX community, which many parents have usedfor

D. candidate at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, New York, and a GEM Fellow at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. His current research focus is Molecular Dynamics with the long-term goal of unlocking a major breakthrough in Energy Sustainability. More specifically, he is exploring the possibility of thermal-to-electrostatic energy conversion to harvest waste heat. Raised in Albany, New York, Malcolm graduated from Albany High School before attending Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC) where
