We created two instrumentsto collect data: A series of open-ended questions and a survey using a 5-point Likert scale fromstrongly agree to strongly disagree. Results showed that a significant group of participantsexpressed positive perceptions of community and teamwork. Moreover, students felt encouragedto participate in all the group activities, team projects, and assignments to achieve the academicgoals for the semester. Students also felt in a safe environment to ask questions and to ask forthe help needed to succeed. The perceptions of students related to community building

The adoption of new tools that could capture the uniquefeatures of design courses, which are primarily project based and open-ended, and require in classdiscussions, feedback and teamwork represented a major challenge in an online environment. Itwas not clear how the online environment would affect the perception of instructors and theperformance of the students. The primary purpose of this paper was to investigate potentialrelationships between the perception of instructors of the impact of the course delivery on thestudent learning, namely the final course grades and student performance against expectations.The instructors’ perceptions

One of the milestone courses, Biothermodynamics, which encompassesformulas, equations, and physical applications of biology systems, is traditionally taughtpassively through lecturing and note-taking. In the past two decades, active learning methodshave been studied and promoted vastly in engineering education, including adding group workand peer interaction into the teaching and learning of such courses to increase studentengagement [1-4]. This work-in-progress study further explores the ability to create a“neighborhood” in a sophomore-level Biothermodynamics classroom.
