At the same time, the data allowus to operationalize these experiences in the context of engineering classrooms, including bothlecture and laboratory courses, and identify nuances in each category that are unique to the

MATH 140 (4 contact hours) is an important buildingblock in the education of any professional who uses quantitative analysis and includes standardintroductory topics in differential calculus, integral calculus and their applications. PHYS 211 (5contact hours) is a calculus-based introduction to classical mechanics, and laboratory exercisesare an integral part of this course. PHYS 211 covers the following topics: kinematics, dynamics,laws of conservation, and their applications. Moreover, both MATH

These factors include poor-quality teaching and advising, a challenging curriculum,deficiencies in mathematics, uninspiring courses, lack of sense of belonging, a lack of interactionbetween students and faculty, financial difficulties, a lack of hands-on projects as well as theavailability of infrastructure and laboratory facilities [1]–[3], [8]–[11].

after the successful launch of both boats (right).USCGA Project DescriptionIn contrast to the course at USNA, cadets at USCGA typically enroll in the boat design/buildcourse as a first-year student (freshmen). The design portion of the course is an optional one-credit lecture offered during the fall semester. The build or construction portion of the course isoffered in a one-credit laboratory format during the spring semester. Both semesters areconsidered “Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory” electives and do not affect the students’ GPA. Studentscan join each class independently, meaning a student may enroll in the build portion in the springwithout participating in the design portion in the fall. Typical enrollment for the fall is upwardsof 20

In general, their courses up to this point have been genericacross engineering, and many students see the course as a way to confirm whether an electrical orcomputer engineering major is right for them. As a result, we have both an opportunity and anobligation to inspire and motivate students in addition to helping them develop prerequisite skillsfor other courses.Digital logic labsAs at most universities, our offering of the course has a substantial laboratory component, wherestudents put in the hard (and rewarding) work of translating pencil-and-paper logic designs

The transition to remote learning was particularly difficult for many of the hands-on experiential learning and laboratory courses that are integral parts of an engineeringeducation. Very few engineering programs in the United States offer purely remote learningenvironments for engineering students, and so this kind of teaching and learning was new forboth faculty, rapidly adjusting their curriculum in a short amount of time, and for the studentswho had to quickly adapt their learning styles [1].

Engineering faculty have many responsibilities, including, but not limited to: teaching a heavy course load, laboratory research, writing publications, applying for funding, attending conferences, managing laboratory materials and safety, mentoring students, networking with industry, and professional development. Therefore, professors’ time is often limited, and professors may not see the value in adjusting a preexisting course. 5. Engineering education is often based on precedent; it is slow to accept change, especially relative to liberal arts
