the overall video views occurredprior to the switch and only 13% occurred after the switch. For the Introduction to ComputerScience course, all students viewed at least one video with an average of 13.3 views per student.The number of videos viewed per student after the switch to online showed a slight increaserelative to the fall 2019. In both classes, students reported only watching videos on topics thatthey found most difficult. Videos on more fundamental or more difficult topics had higherviewership. Results suggest that students were using the videos as supplemental materials andthat the videos were successful in helping students master the course material.IntroductionStudents entering the University of Idaho, and universities in general

in 2019, Right: The digital classroom during Pandemicmonths of 2020.The digital classroom at the beginning of the lock down had a novelty effect in students as theywere curious about how the learning process would take place online. For some of them it wastheir first experience online and the same applied to some professors. The online sessions wereheld at the same time as they were scheduled for on campus teaching, however, it soon becameevident that long sessions were not best suited for online teaching, as there are some courses withsessions up to 4 hours in a row for courses like Architectural Projects. In Fig. 2 we can see atypical session on campus where the professor can make use of models that he has available forthe course on campus

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Evaluation of an EPIC Student Experience to Broaden Participation in Engineering Programs (Work in Progress)AbstractRecruiting and retaining a diverse talent pool has been long recognized as essential to keep ournation’s economic and intellectual preeminence but is an area in which we continue to fall short.Historical barriers could be lifted by providing institutional initiatives to supportunderrepresented students in higher education engineering programs. The Equal Partners inInclusive Community (EPIC) program was established in fall 2019 to address the needs of andprovide support mechanisms for underrepresented minority (URM) groups
STEM fields [1] – [3]. Althoughseveral examples exist in specific engineering disciplines and combinations of engineeringdisciplines [4], [5], [6], there are relatively few examples of first year, project-based courses thatintegrate engineering, mathematics, statistics, and computer science majors [7]. This work-in-progress paper describes a multi-disciplinary first year seminar that was developed in 2019-2020at the University of Vermont, College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, and firsttaught in Fall 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The course development process,structure, and adaptation to COVID-19, as well as observations and improvements following thefirst offering of the course are described.2. BackgroundThe College

In this course, students work on a civil engineering-related project during thesemester. In the Spring 2019 and 2020 semesters, students were introduced to geometric designby working on a road design project. Three main sections were implemented in this project. Thefirst piece was understanding of topographic map. In this piece, students were asked to select anon-flat site located in the United States. The topographic map of the selected site was printedand provided to the students. Students were asked to draft the topographic map in

increase in small electrical devices deployed for monitoring and othersimilar uses. When in cities or accessible areas, even if permanent connection to the electrical gridisn’t possible, battery power is a feasible alternative. However in remote locations, periodic batteryreplacement would be overly burdensome and so renewable resources are required. Vibration energyharvesting can be one such method for renewable energy in suitable environments. Common examplesof mechanisms utilized for this intent includes variable capacitance, electromagnetic induction, andpiezoelectricity [1].
