With a lack of preparedness for the pivot and the complex effects it had on course delivery,critical student comments on negative experiences were expected. Furthermore, certain studentpreferences may have arisen as they adjusted to unfamiliar and/or ill-planned learningenvironments [5]. Documented impacts on students observed both by the authors and in publishedpapers to date have included [6-9]: • Academic stress factors such as reduced face-to-face social interactions • Limited networking presence with college personnel (faculty, staff) as well as peers • Longer response time for communication via e-mail or other online platforms • Extra assignments to make

Thematic analysis helped the researcher identify three themes and gain a deeperunderstanding of faculty members’ prevalent perceptions of student career preparation for eachskill.

Culturalscripts of heterosexism and masculinity in engineering led to significant discomfort for the gaymen Hughes studied – while they felt a strong sense of belonging in the engineering community,the belonging was mediated by the experiences of silence and heterosexism in their engineeringspaces.

Malori wrote in her reflections: The feedback loop of seeing if students understand/when they’re done writing is still pretty much gone - but some students do have their cameras on, so I use them as the gauge.
