For many individuals, this period represents a significant shift from therole of a student or postdoctoral researcher to that of an educator, scholar, and contributor tothe academic community. As new faculty members navigate the complexities of their roles, theyencounter various responsibilities and expectations, ranging from teaching and research to serviceand mentorship. Effectively managing these demands while striving for

also point out the variation among those who educate in engineering (tenured/tenure-trackfaculty, graduate students, and contingent/adjunct faculty), which is not always acknowledged.By not paying attention to such variation, the impact of work done in engineering educationresearch may be limited. In an effort to illuminate these variations, we report on research thatexplores some details of the educator experience. In this paper we ask: what does it look like tobe an educator working to adapt an existing curriculum for a new term, in our case a curriculumpreviously taught in Autumn 2021 and adapted for use in Winter 2022? Broadly, the curriculumwas a 10-week seminar titled Dear Design: Defining Your Ideal Design Signature where

, emotional, andbehavioral dimensions. In addition, it seeks to guarantee students an education under theSustainable Development Goal (SDG) #4 (Quality Education), with the necessary skills andknowledge to promote sustainable development, including peace, non-violence, genderequality, and cultural appreciation [2]. However, these competencies are often not easilymodeled in a conventional classroom with specific or limited problem situations. One strategyfor meeting these high demands is Collaborative International Online Learning (COIL),particularly the Global Shared Learning Classroom (GSLC) approach. GSLC is acollaboration between two or more faculty members from different geographic locations orcountries through technology to teach similar or
