Courses that do not involve laboratory components could be taught remotely wherestudents from all regional campuses can attend. The use of LMS along with a Zoom platform forvideo conferencing has made it possible to deliver content remotely.V.

This halts their critical thinking process, and it shows whenstudents blindly copy examples that do not fit the context of the given problem. It is not easy tobalance completing the syllabus and caring for the students’ wellbeing and development in life. The educators also have their set of struggles with online classes [12]. They were unable tospend as much time and energy on the students who are hidden behind black screens with mutedmicrophones. This disconnection worsens when the educators have to passively gauge thestudents’ progress based on their submitted work. Since the students

Members are self-selected, favoredby the fact that being seniors, they have had opportunities to interact previously in the career,align their interests and schedules, and they have already been exposed to work in non-self-selected teams.The first session of the lab takes place in the classroom and provides basic information on thelab, scope, and syllabus for the course. In addition, students participate in a selection of teambuilding games to reinforce team skills and strategies [14].

Summer Bridge is an opportunity to engage students in a strong foundationalalgebra curriculum to ensure precalculus readiness by their first semester of postsecondaryeducation—that is, their first fall with the STEM Core. These math courses also aim to build cohortcohesion and community by delivering them with a learning community cohort model. All butone of 12 sites offered non-credit math courses for the Summer Bridge. This allowed for flexibilityin delivery and an ability to “meet students where they are.” For example, at Evergreen ValleyCollege, the math professor began with a syllabus, but spent much more time than expected onfactoring because students lacked understanding and practice in that area—critical for success inthe

For example,one team conducts multiple projects with the local branch of Habitat for Humanity, whereasanother team develops web-based database systems for a variety of different communitypartners. Each team has a historical average of 15 students and multiple projects, typically withfour to five students per project. Each team stands as an independent lab division, but with acommon curriculum, syllabus, and assessment. As a student-centered, project-based course,instead of serving as a lecturer, the instructors in each lab division serve as a coach or guide andare thus labeled as ‘advisors’.Early in the formation of EPICS, it

rapidly during thiscentury, there have been few empirical studies beyond a single institution's case. Furthermore,many case studies have also been limited to documenting changes in course maps or the explicitcurriculum, i.e., what is overt in the documentation. In light of this, this research presentsfindings from a doctoral thesis that analyses educators’ and students’ experiences of the explicitand implicit—which is learnt from the organisation, intentions, attitudes and behaviours of theeducators, for example, and what is not taught respectively—to provide a richer picture of whatis understood and experienced as the intended and enacted curriculum.In general, findings suggest that accreditation systems (such as the Washington Accord
