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

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

outcome expectations as manyquestioned their likelihood for success in the tenure-track job market.Following Stake’s (1995) third step of pattern recognition, more precise content was developedthrough grouping associated data, developing fuse codes, and refining the themes identifiedacross the interview data. This process enabled the researchers to identify common backgroundexperiences that influenced career interests and, ultimately, career decisions. For instance,postdoctoral scholars who experienced strong, formalized mentoring as students desired toreplicate mentoring in their laboratories, and those who had support and resources to do so feltempowered and optimistic they could continue this work as a professor.

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]. Takentogether, these essays argue that there is such a thing as a “scholarship of

information to help international students and faculty navigate the difficult time. 2. Addressing logistics: Around half of the universities used the web pages to address logistics related information. These included resources for faculty and students alike on which buildings were still open, recommendations for use of laboratory spaces, booking of meeting rooms and conference rooms and guidelines for gathering indoors. 3. Promoting wellness - both physical and mental: Around a third of the universities used the web pages to promote wellness, both physical and mental. Some universities provided links to indoor exercises, while others promoted mindfulness and encouraged mental wellbeing. 4. Showcasing
