Learning in Community Colleges and Four-Year UniversitiesIntroduction Community colleges serve an important role in the development of students in science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Most community colleges are open-accessinstitutions, with students coming from all different walks of life to enroll in these schools [1].These include students directly out of high-school, or those that are returning to school for asecond career. When looking that the demographics of community colleges, we find that theyserve a disproportionate number of students who are marginalized [2]. These institutions oftenare a gateway to transferring into a four-year school where a student can continue their educationand receive a bachelor’s

This seemed an appropriate time to survey distanceeducation students about their experience, and how COVID impacted their decisions about theireducation. An online survey was sent to all currently enrolled distance education students (591students in all) in the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology program at East CarolinaUniversity (ECU). In addition to several

Research suggests emerging technologies have great potential toimprove learning and help students develop an interest in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) [1]. In essence, academia, non-profits, and for-profits have begun todevelop AI curricula and resources for pre-college education [2]. The Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology (MIT) recently released ‘The Middle School AI + Ethics Curriculum,’ whichintegrates ethics in technical lessons to develop students’ ethical design skills [2].BackgroundArtificial Intelligence in Pre-College EducationArtificial Intelligence (AI) in literature is defined as “the science and engineering of creatingintelligent machines” [4, p. 2].

Say for example, participating in a robotics competition, or applying for an internship at a local tech company, or even signing up to tour a technology facility, all of these are great opportunities for anyone with serious interest in engineering. The moment I found my spot in the opportunities I had; taking part in robotics competitions, applying for jobs, working with clubs in my area designing and building cool tech projects, I found that I now search more and more not for clubs to take part in or opportunities to take
