changeto remote learning negatively impacted student learning. Due to reduced engagement in thismodality, students seemed to prefer in-person learning over remote learning. The facultyreported being more flexible in assessing student learning by offering open-book quizzes andtests. Some faculty have replaced exams with projects to accommodate students facingpandemic-related uncertainties. A majority of the faculty noted that time constraints made aconsiderable difference in how they were able to assess their students' learning and that the fastpace of events during the pandemic did not allow for much reflection. Overall, faculty felt that ajudicious mix of synchronous and asynchronous teaching methods was most conducive tostudent success during

ininternationalization of higher education by interviewing 16 faculty and researchers atuniversities. The findings suggested four characteristics of faculty and researchers that cansignificantly influence the internationalization of higher education - international academicexperience, participation in international collaboration projects or networks, international co-authorship, and experience in international publications [8]. Besides these personal factors, thereare also some external barriers that prevent faculty from engaging in internationalization work,for instance, not taking into account faculty international services or contribution for the tenureor promotion, lack of financial incentives, and many competing demands on faculty’s time andworkload [9

In future semesters, we will be gradually adding more courses that are integratedwith surveying RL problems (Table 2), increasing the impact of this project. We expect to addRL problems to one course each semester. In addition, in the future we plan to draw RLproblems from other engineering disciplines such as Civil Engineering, increasing the variety ofRL problems and providing a diverse experience to students. For instance, a very common civilengineering problem is to have a site surveyed and then the total impervious area is calculatedfor a storm-water management plan. When setting a concrete foundation on a rock subsurface theslope of the subsurface is needed to determine if the concrete

Prior research has demonstrated that a wide range of students with varying abilities and skill levelscan benefit from the flipped classroom format, but the benefits are not uniformly distributed among thegeneral STEM student population. For example, studies [2, 3] have suggested that medical studentsrespond most favorably—reporting heightened enjoyment, decreased boredom and a large gain inknowledge and skills—because the students naturally enjoy collaborative and project-based learning inhands-on environments.
