universities. The authors recently started one such program forstudents interested in civil engineering. They entered this field because of a perceived need forcivil engineering pre-college education and the proven effectiveness of summer programs inincreasing student interest in STEM fields.According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics [1], the domestic engineering field isanticipated to add over 130,000 jobs from 2016-2026. The largest portion of these jobs is forcivil engineers who account for nearly a quarter of this anticipated job growth [1]. Despite thegrowing demand for civil engineering services, civil engineering enrollment in 2016-2017dropped by approximately 3,000 students compared to 2008-2009 [2], [3]. This drop in civilengineering

Many ofthese courses were upper division laboratory or activity classes. There were fewer which openedsuch courses for incoming freshman classes.This paper covers the rapid transition of a traditional freshman experience to a hybrid face-to-face course in the Fall 2020 quarter. The course features a virtual lecture each week and tenseparate hands-on activities that required different modes of instruction and involved differentsocial distancing protocols. Furthermore, the course was required to provide virtualaccommodation for those students who chose not to return to campus

The user-product interaction is a form of communication primarily dependenton (1) the message that the product is transmitting in terms of its usability and (2) the user’scognitive ability to receive, process, and understand such message. The external interfaces of aproduct or system are where these interactions generally occur, which are typically developedfollowing user-centered design principles. An intuitive interface which

An Initial Exploration of Engineering Student Perceptions of COVID’s Impact on Connectedness, Learning, and STEM IdentityMany STEM students were affected by the pandemic and subsequent switch to remote learningin different ways. However, one common issue is that moving from face-to-face interaction toremote interaction (e.g., Zoom) has left many students feeling detached from their STEMcommunities which in turn negatively affected their learning. For example, 46% of engineeringand technology students at IUPUI reported “loneliness and lack of connection” as result of thepandemic and 61% agreed that “online learning is [a] difficult format for learning” [1]. In thispaper, we seek to understand how the pandemic and remote learning

After the national emergency of the COVID-19pandemic was declared, universities in the United States took drastic measures to close campusand use the spring break week for preparing and switching teaching online. The fast growth oftechnology has laid the ground for online teaching [1] [7]. However, there are still a lot ofuncertainties about the impact of distance learning on students’ learning effectiveness [6], andthe forced online teaching and learning during the Covid-19 pandemic is one of those emergingtopics [4] [5].

However,students benefit from intentional interactions with professionals in their area of study [1].Informational interviews, site visits [2], industry-sponsored projects [3], and adjunct instructorsfrom industry [4] all provide educational advantages within the context of an engineeringcurriculum. Each of these can require a great deal of time on the part of the industry liaison ornecessitate curricular changes. Another common tactic is to bring in a guest lecturer for a singleclass session to give a talk on her specialty or to tie class material to industry.

Innovation-Based Learning can be understood through Daniel Pink’s framework of Autonomy, Mastery, andPurpose [1]. Autonomy is most visible at the beginning of each semester as students enjoy boththe freedom and responsibility to propose a project and then self-assemble a working group [2].Purpose, which we often speak of as “external value” or “external impact” is emphasized in twoimportant ways during the course.
