Ethnographic research was alogical fit for our study, which aimed to examine the cultural tension and confluence in femalestudents’ experiences situated in a traditionally male-dominated learning environment.Data Sources After IRB approval, the research team contacted the instructor of the course entitledMilitary Technology and Instrumentation (MTI) or Experimental Research Methods (ERM) toobtain his support for data collection. MTI/ERM was a new course developed through externalgrant support with a goal to broaden the military science and technology workforce. The courseincluded lectures and several hands-on laboratory activities designed to increase students’interest in and knowledge of military technologies and related career opportunities

As a result, the attritionrates are higher after students take statics and dynamics courses. These students with poormathematical preparation were identified as at-risk for leaving engineering and STEM pathwaysentirely once they faced difficulties in their early coursework due to applied mathematics.

Many institutions have opted to cancel in-personclasses, including labs, and have mandated a pivot to online instruction to help control the spreadof the virus. Researchers have studied online education for decades and research shows thateffective online learning results from a planned instructional design using a systematic model fordevelopment [1].

The CEE pro-gram includes a significant laboratory component and practical design projects in the upperlevel classes. The program culminates in a capstone design class that is taken in the last se-mester in school. Projects for this class are often solicited from communities and non-profitorganizations, and typically incorporate a service learning component.In reviewing the existing UWP CEE curriculum for this curriculum development project, itbecame clear that the curriculum had not changed significantly in over 20 years.
