We are aware of other frameworks that delineate between SOTL and discipline-basedresearch educational based on the degree of methodological rigor (e.g., Streveler et al., 2007), but weconsider that distinction to establish barriers to entry that are antithetical to the goal of onboardingengineering faculty to ENED research.

The course was project and discussion based with biweeklyreflections and course readings. The primary pedagogical element utilized collaborative learningsessions based on a flipped-classroom model, where students would read unique articles to gainnew perspectives, come prepared to in-class sessions to share their perspectives, and engage inproblem framing of a complex situation. Therefore, the course centered around these interactive,discussion-based, collaborative learning sessions to promote engagement and active learning.Course Design Considerations and Lessons Learned The lessons learned are

years’experience. Studies such as the ones briefly reviewed here bear further analysis in developing aframework and further qualitative inquiry.Faculty research and teaching offer excellent opportunities to infuse or hone entrepreneurialmindset (EM) (Mckenna, A et al., 2018). EM competencies result in effective research andteaching as well as career effectiveness. For example, proposal development benefits from anEM. New course development benefits from an EM. Therefore, entrepreneurial mindset is anantecedent to faculty productivity. This project identifies factors that impact EM and therefore,faculty productivity. Exploring how faculty mentoring influences faculty productivity includesidentifying which EM competencies are promoted through

by a shared program or curriculum. Thischaracteristic of the model was motivated in part by the fact that STEM instructors often find itchallenging to translate general teaching advice and strategies to discipline-specific contexts. Wehypothesized that grouping instructors by discipline would facilitate “translation.” The model isalso consistent with recommendations for professional learning communities to includeparticipants with common concerns or needs [1], [4].Groups and ParticipantsAs part of the project studied in this paper, SIMPLE teaching development groups were formedin six STEM departments at a single large, research-focused institution.

switching between tasks(parallel task completion). Although the nature of a faculty position does not always allow one to choosebetween serial or parallel task completion, there is often a great deal of autonomy if one can become moreintentional about how one works. On the timescale of months, the FDC can help plan out the balancebetween intrinsic and extrinsic activities. Spending too much time only completing either intrinsic orextrinsic tasks can be a warning sign. As faculty developers, we can suggest using the canvas withorganizational tools (e.g., Slack, Trello, or other project management software), that can track andsequence actions. On the timescale of years and decades, a faculty member will likely change theirbehavior patterns and even

In this project, facultydevelopment is framed as interdisciplinary work where faculty developers work to integratemultiple perspectives towards creating educational solutions and supporting faculty and graduatestudents in the development of their teaching and learning practice.

Because many of the engineering classes at SJSUinclude laboratories, projects or other group experiences, we wanted to create our own survey toask faculty members about these experiences.

What was the impact of the switch online in Spring 2020 to lab classes?COVID-19 forced many universities to transition quickly to remote teaching. Since Spring 2020,there was been many articles
