questions were based on the students’survey developed by the researchers at Georgetown and HEDS [14-15] , and modified accordingto the peculiar aspects of our university. 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. The research questions of the study are: 1. What are the impressions of faculty members to the learning environments in engineering courses after the switch to remote learning in Spring 2020? 2. 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

We often receive written feedback that TAs would like more information on specificfacilitation styles (laboratory facilitation vs. a flipped classroom environment vs. online) wherenow they receive general guidance on facilitation and interpersonal relationship development. AsNEO moves forward, we will examine reallocating time so we can add other types of facilitationskills to better serve laboratory TAs and flipped classroom/online facilitation methods. The future of NEO will incorporate the feedback above and continue to build on existingstrengths. NEO brings TAs from all of the fields of study within these two Colleges together sothey can interact, providing a singular networking opportunity which is

quick. At San José State University (SJSU), students and faculty were given lessthan one week to prepare to teach and take classes remotely. Most faculty at SJSU had nevertaught online before this dramatic shift in March 2020 and both faculty and students werechallenged to finish the semester. Most SJSU engineering classes are offered in the traditionalface-to-face mode with in-person laboratories and project classes. Because of COVID-19, allSJSU classes, including those in the College of Engineering, went to a remote mode.The object of this study was to determine the impact of the sudden move to remote learning onengineering students at SJSU through a survey and interviews. By supplementing the surveyswith interviews of students, this study

idea of doing research on one’s ownteaching [18] are both relevant. This idea has also been taken up (independently) in the US byAngelo and Cross [22], and Cross and Steadman [23]. The former concerning ClassroomAssessment Techniques (CATS), and the latter, classroom research. We are strongly influencedhere by the position of Patricia Cross, who claimed that teaching in higher education would notacquire status until teachers treated their classrooms as laboratories for research. The “new”discipline of engineering education research, the question of who should be doing it, and how itcan be accomplished with rigor has been discussed at FIE and ASEE since 2000 [24].

learning has yet to be seen [4]. The lackof remote teaching in engineering, prior to the pandemic, has been attributed to the inherentnature of the discipline, which requires hands-on training to work with instruments and materialsin controlled laboratory settings [5]. Learning experiences that support practical knowledge andskill development are essential for engineers but are difficult to create in a digital environment[5]. Consequently, researchers have claimed that transiting conventional engineering courses thatfocus on content-centered and designed-oriented learning to online may not provide studentswith the in-depth learning required in engineering [5-6]. Furthermore, converting conventionalengineering courses to remote instruction

For the workshop, the pre-tenured faculty modified already existing laboratories toincorporate aspects of scale-up design, engineering economics, and process safety into eachproject. The instructor also added new elements of professionalism, teamwork, and lab safetyinto the already built course structure. Finally, course level assessments were changed from theold ABET Student Learning Outcomes A thru K to the newly adopted ABET Outcomes 1 thru 7.This is a perfect example of a course revision because new elements were added to an alreadyexisting course and the assessment criteria was updated.An example of a Course Component project occurred for a required freshmen
