project, a faculty offers someselections. For example, some of our technology students are interested in the construction ofresearch equipment and a faculty offers some selections with the encouragement of “transferringto engineering majors”. Some of our students are interested in AI and statistical machinelearning software and that their related projects focus on algorithm development with lab and/orsimulated data. In the face-to-face situation prior to the COVID-19 lockdown, the data sourcewas either data collection in a lab setting or data in a national archive. During the lockdown,using the data in national archives became the only choice in a community college with limitedbudget. Our experience showed that community college students in
