consistently positive, it also served as a perfect trainingopportunity for work ethic, responsibility, and accountability.Through the Summer 2020 virtual SRI program, the project management team learned severalimportant lessons to run a virtual summer research program. It is very important to have a clearand consistent program schedule. Most of our SRI daily activities were scheduled at the sametime every day. Clear and frequent communication with the participants is imperative before theprogram starts, to discuss the program design and emphasize the responsibilities of theparticipants. Open and smooth communication is also necessary among the project managementteam, faculty advisors, graduate student mentors, and SRI participants throughout the

Some topics to be covered in the camp will include computerengineering, math, physics, english, electrical engineering, and laboratory exercises withLEGOs, plant visits, and engineering ethics. Table 3 shows a tentative schedule of activities forthe camp.By having the summer camp, we intend to get more students interested in the Engineeringprofession. The positive experience of the high school students due to the engineering campmay turn them on to study engineering. In addition, the summer camp will make the studentsunderstand that engineering can be fun, rewarding, and beneficial to society. Table 3 Tentative Schedule of Activities for the Summer Camp

This is a conducive to the individual faculty’s schedule to return to theinstitution on the anticipated date upon completion of the fellowship at a NASAcenter.Results and Outcomes1. Management and LeadershipManagement and leadership skills are developed via individual standing on theproject(s) and exercising necessary freedom of work ethics. Flexible schedule ofworking is a great advantage for the fellows. Often the fellows take advantage ofenjoying working during the weekends without hesitation. The gathering of thefellows administered by the UNCFSPC gives an opportunity to know each otherand may lead to future collaborations. This expansion of horizon

Another example from a previous implementation was in an Ethics course, where studentsposted an image on Instagram that responds to what is ethics from an engineering perspectiveand how would a project manager's office include unethical/biased resources. By the end of thesemester, the students complete a post-course survey that addresses the same questions.The pre- and post-course surveys in this study are also used to evaluate the effectiveness ofintegrating Social Media platforms in STEM courses

Implementing new hands-on activities and challenge-basedinstruction (CBI) methods requires STC STEM faculty members to acquire training throughworkshops designed to promote STEM instruction with modern pedagogical approaches.Moreover, Activity 4 also addresses the need for Qualified Tutors for Advanced DEEA Courses.There is a significant need for qualified tutors and mentors to help students enrolled in the mostadvanced courses (e.g. Calculus

Would-be carers think they know what the cared-for needs and act on their inferences in the name of caring.
