These disciplinary STEM-H researchers sought not only tobetter understand and evaluate their teaching practices to benefit students

Giventhe potential for strong impact on engineering students’ experiences, and faculty resourcelimitations, we sought to elucidate if some behaviors have a higher potential for impact thanothers, and if so, which faculty behaviors may best contribute to building faculty-student rapport.With these insights, engineering faculty can be trained to selectively focus on those which areexpected to have the greatest return on investment. To support the primary aim, students frommultiple disciplines in an engineering college were surveyed and asked to rank their perceptionsof faculty behaviors that best establish rapport with

[1], some teaching activities in the online environmenthave “the potentials to cultivate deeper learning experiences, but they can fail to do so ifactivities are not designed and implemented properly.” The rapid switch to online instruction inMarch 2020 did not allow faculty members to train, plan and reflect upon the best teachingmodes for online instruction, unless they had previously taught an online class. Therefore, aswith many other researchers, we consider the Spring semester to be an example of remotelearning rather than planned online learning [3].In October 2020, the Chronicle of Higher Education conducted a survey among faculty membersin US institutions to gain

In response to numerous reports in the 1990s andearly 2000s [4-7], multiple EER graduate programs were established in the mid-2000s and agrowing number continue to emerge to educate and train the next generation of EER faculty andpolicy makers. Historically, many came to EER as individuals trained in other disciplines, butwith an interest in improving teaching and learning [8]. This approach created aninterdisciplinary space where many could learn the norms, practices, and language of EER asthey became scholars

prevent most faculty from using them. For example, trying new educationalinnovations and updating courses while balancing an active research lab is a difficult endeavorfor faculty. Knowledge and familiarity with engineering education best practices is anothermajor barrier and it impacts young and established faculty in different ways. Most new educatorslearn to teach effectively through trial and error and have little or no formal training in bestpractices of education [3]. Studies in the U.S. show that for 95% of new faculty members ittakes four to five years of trial and error to become fully productive in research and effective inteaching [6].
