still underway. Each year new workshop and facilitation teams are added.Existing workshops are evaluated, improved, and evolved based on the feedback loops established. At theindividual faculty member level, one workshop Integrating Curriculum with Entrepreneurial Mindset(ICE) focused on helping an individual faculty member change classroom practice. At the department orunit level, new workshops have been tested that focus on the needs of a specific school or unit. Anexample is a workshop for Montana State University in 2020 that took elements of two other workshopsand structured the material in the context of the institutional focus. At the national level the prototypingincludes workshops focused on leadership and culture change.The testing
takes excessive faculty members time to preparethe assessment. I think I think exam integrity is a big, big challenge, for engineering for the engineering curriculum. - PeterIn order to minimize cheating, some of the faculty members experimented using video proctoringduring assessment, either using software such as LockDown browser, ProctorU, Impendus ormonitoring students using synchronous Zoom meetings. In some cases, this has resulted instudents’ push back, with faculty members feeling under pressure about their assessmentstrategies. And they were saying like why I'm only using this because many other faculty are giving take home exam and I'm the only one who does like who tortures them…– HannaFaculty

What does itmean for course development when the ability to navigate complexity and ambiguity are explicitcourse learning objectives? This paper is based on the author’s experience as an engineeringeducation researcher, curriculum developer, and instructor of record, leading the developmentand instruction of a new course offered in an undergraduate multidisciplinary engineeringprogram. As part of the course development, the author participated in a six-day intensiveSummer Course Design Institute offered through the Center for Instructional Excellence atPurdue

different institutions with interest in applying EM approaches to career development haveteamed for this initiative. The three private institutions vary in size from 1,200 to 10,000. One isreligiously affiliated, and one is PhD granting. All three are members of the KEEN network andall have spent considerable time and resources weaving EM learning into their curriculums. Thenext step is to encourage their faculty to apply an EM approach to their own careers. All threeprovide mentors to new faculty and teaching load reductions for tenure-track faculty. The careerplanning support at these three institutions varies as does the position and rank of the faculty(Table 2). It is understood that titles for nontenure track faculty vary widely across the
