mental health crisis inhigher education, just one driver of many to spur faculty to treat students with kindness. Thispaper explores issues of kindness in engineering and engineering education. What evidence isthere that kindness is congruent or incongruent with engineering education? What is the value ofconsidering kindness in comparison to the constructs of care, empathy, and compassion? Theperspectives of a variety of scholars are synthesized in this analysis. This is followed by concreteexamples of teaching and course practices that are emblematic of kindness, such ascompassionate pedagogy. The author argues that kindness is appropriate to embody withinengineering education, irrespective of externally obvious stressors like a global

during the undergraduate years. In order to achieve it, only academiccounselling is not enough; it needs a more intimate ‘mentoring’ for both incoming Freshmen andoutgoing Senior undergraduates. During the present crisis of COVID-19 and in the post-COVID-19scenario thereafter in engineering education, when online instructions are rapidly replacing in-presencelectures at the undergraduate level, mastery learning is even more important in order to avoidprofessional limitations, and in the long run of lifelong learning, professional obsolescence.Key words: concentration, COVID-19, online instructions and lab experiments, academic counselling vs.mentoring.IntroductionIn one of the Indian epics, Mahabharata [1], the master archer, Drona, was teaching

Various studies,from using interactive, hands-on lessons and activities designed to teach research process toundergraduate engineering students 1 , to preparing manufacturing engineering students throughcompetitions, projects sponsored by industry, capstone projects, laboratory exercises or projectssimulating real-life scenarios 2 , have shown that active learning increases student performance inSTEM subjects.Critical thinking, identified by The U.
