Engineering Technology CoursesAbstractPenn State University requires that before any technology intended for classroom use isapproved for purchase, including renewals of software currently in classroom use, there must bean equally effective alternate access plan (EEAAP) in place for that technology. The plan mustanswer the question “What will you do if a person with a disability gets involved in yourprogram and is impacted by the lack of accessibility on this technology.” The motivation for thisrequirement is compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as amended in 2008[1]. This paper details the process that faculty at Penn State Behrend undertook to create astandard EEAAP that can be used as a template when

At the end of the school year, theteam determined that more powerful motors would be necessary. More funding was requestedand eventually granted, but not before the senior students had graduated from ORU. The nextyear’s class of students installed the new motors in the Spring of 2019, but testing the prototypewas very limited due to the School of Engineering moving all labs and classrooms to newfacilities across the street. Boxing up the simulator and all required equipment proved to be alarge challenge. Another

While interacting withsuch tools, students have an additional opportunity to further their understanding of a conceptand fix any errors on their own, before submitting their homework [1].The application of such devices in engineering courses offers students the possibility of applyingtheir conceptual understanding to a project that requires experimentation, making the contentmore interesting and enjoyable to learn. This gives students the chance to practice designing,building, and testing, all of which, are significant skills for engineers to have [2].

Students submit theirprograms to a webpage, which in seconds gives feedback on the program's runtimecorrectness along with a score. Students can then resubmit to improve their score[1], [2] aided by automated feedback [3]. The benefits include reduced humanresources, and immediate feedback to aid learning [4]. Drawbacks include little orno feedback on coding style [5], potential student overreliance on the auto-graderto test programs [6], and potential cheating of the auto-grader [7].

Three themes emerged on the potential efficacy of goal-match mentoring: (1)Identifying a career goal prior to the beginning of the mentoring match requires deep reflectionon behalf of the mentee and promotes goal accountability; (2) The mentoring relationshipquickly blooms as the nature of the mentoring need is identified early in the process; and (3) Theexpertise of the mentor is swiftly leveraged for the maximum benefit of the mentee.

positions off the tenure track grew from around 47% to 61% [1]. This trend is notablebecause of the potential ramifications for higher education, some of which are related to workingconditions for faculty off the tenure track. For example, many non-tenure-track (NTT) facultyare hired on a per-course basis with little to no job security, low pay, and limited access toresources such as office space [1]. Yet, NTT faculty teach over 50% of the student credit hours at4-year institutions in the U.S. [1].

Empathy is viewed as necessary to understand people’sexperiences and incorporate their perspectives into design decisions. To be effective, empathyrequires more than knowing about the user. Rather, the designer has to relate to the user andunderstand their feelings, experiences, and perspectives [6]. A co-creation design processincludes stakeholders as partners in generating ideas [7], but when working on designsindependently, deep empathy is often challenging. In concept generation, engineers exploremany potential solutions to a problem through sketching and describing multiple ideas [8]–[10].Unfortunately, there is little evidence on how engineers keep people

COVID-19 are estimated at 21 trilliondollars in 2020 alone, which is nearly equal to the annual U.S. GDP in 2019 [1]. The COVID-19pandemic also impacted social aspects of daily lives including educational, political, andreligious activities [2]. Specifically, in university classrooms, the COVID-19 pandemic restrictedtraditional face-to-face delivery of educational content. Such restrictions have enforced highereducation institutions (e.g., colleges and universities) to seek alternative ways to deliver thecourse contents while maintaining their quality. Many institutions in the U.S. opted for offeringvirtual classes using internet-based platforms.However, such rapid transformation into virtual education precipitated by the pandemic has yetto be
