theintersection of ethics, science, technology, and engineering for precollege audiences. This papershares the results of this partnership between education staff, teachers, and philosophers,including educational resources produced as artifacts of the program which integrated a diversityof pedagogical approaches to teaching ethics in secondary STEM classrooms.Framing literatureThe study of ethics, including neuroethics, is increasingly being integrated into engineeringeducation at the college and graduate level. At the precollege level, ethics are sometimesincorporated into the curriculum in humanities and science classrooms, however less is knownabout neuroethics education within these precollege contexts.

It also helpedto sell the class as a unicorn – there are no other courses like it in the entire college that combinemathematics with engineering problem-solving in a hands-on lab based format where studentsalso learn programming/MATLAB. This messaging intends to convince students that it is not aremedial class, rather a challenging class that illustrates why math is needed in engineering andwill help give them an advantage in future courses. As the instructors were teaching the coursethey never referred to it as a remedial course, or that the students were “behind” in any way onthe math

The course covers the CompTIA Security+ requirements andis based on the HyFlex delivery model which was originally developed at San Francisco StateUniversity.This paper discusses how a limited-flexibility model was transformed due to the COVID-19pandemic into a highly flexible delivery model. Specifically, the course went beyond simplyhaving lecture and laboratory components to offering a HyFlex Options Menu where studentsselect between several options for each area of the class.

The paper describes thecontent and timeline for the implementation of seven project management modules in the two-semester capstone course starting in the 2018-19 academic year.Capstone: Ideal for Project Management InstructionThe capstone course is a project-based learning experience that attempts to mirror a real-worldproblem with open-ended design projects. Thus, students are expected to combine and applyknowledge gained from previous courses and laboratory work. Often projects are sponsored andsupported by industry, providing direct exposure to design problems faced by industry

engineeringdisciplines, and the context of their research varied considerably. Some students were part oflarge, established experimental laboratories while other students worked individually or in smallgroups on computational or theoretical projects. As this course was launched in Fall 2020,students in this class experienced the additional challenge of starting college (and undergraduateresearch) remotely during a global pandemic. The design and content of this course wereevaluated using anonymous feedback and a review of reflective discussion posts in order todetermine whether the course supported the stated learning goals. This evaluation indicates thatstudents found the course material helpful in understanding their role as undergraduate researchassistants
