instructionhas been proven to be effective for teaching theoretical knowledge [8], teaching laboratory coursesrequire hands-on learning which were difficult to execute in a remote setting. In addition, project-based learning also suffered since students could not meet to brainstorm ideas and test theirconcepts and prototypes. Several research studies have been conducted in the past three years aboutthe impact of the pandemic on teaching and learning [9-10]. Studies showed that first-year studentsreported lower connections with their instructors. And female students reported statistically highereffects of online learning on their sense of belonging in engineering compared to male students[11].

Adeserved criticism from industry, where most students go after graduation, is that most universityengineering programs do not incorporate enough hands-on activities (experience) with actualequipment. This is referred to as “practical intelligence” [9]. U.S. undergraduate engineeringeducation has a heavy emphasis on theory with much less emphasis on practical applications[10].Wankat and Oreovicz write, “Despite almost universal agreement on the importance of designand laboratory work, there is a tendency to cut these programs since they are expensive, messy,hard to teach, time-consuming, and not connected to the university’s other mission – research”[11].

For example, sessions held in computer labs involve a professor orteaching assistant demonstrating spreadsheet skills or techniques that can be mimicked bystudents. While instructors can give real time feedback in computer laboratories with smallnumbers of students, measuring students’ spreadsheet skills at scale is quite difficult.Alternatively, multiple choice tests can assess spreadsheet skills [10].

problem by deciding what to focus onabout the problem. This aspect also makes teaching design difficult, especially in the first yearwhen students have completed little to none of their technical coursework. To overcome thisissue, faculty sometimes reduce the complexity by making the design problem purely technical,removing social and policy factors. However, this approach can actually make the problem moredifficult for students, by obscuring the problem context and meaning. Another way facultyaddress the issue is by reducing the ill-structuredness, providing kit-based projects in whichstudents lack opportunities to frame the problem.We sought to investigate how first-year students navigated a complex and ill-structured designchallenge, guided by

of Connecticut conducted a PBSL experience where approximately 400first-year engineering students designed and built Corsi-Rosenthal (C-R) boxes (DIY AirPurifiers) that trap 56-91 % of respiratory aerosols and improve indoor air quality. The C-Rboxes were built for a nominal cost of $60 per box, using a 20” box fan, four 20”x20”x2”MERV-13 filters, the box from the fan, and duct tape. The project was carried out by smallgroups (3-4 students) working in the First-Year Design Laboratory over four weeks. At the endof the project, the C-R boxes were distributed to the local elementary schools. During the pandemic, these first-year engineering students had completed their final yearin high school remotely, under lockdown. Thus, this C-R box
