the classroom andlearning overall. The benefit of connections between students and the university community hasbeen well-established in literature. Therefore, for students in the chemical engineeringthermodynamics course at the University of Arkansas during 2020, an attempt was made toincrease student-student and student-faculty connections through a variety of means. Theprimary goal was to support the mental health of vulnerable students and increase classroomengagement and learning.In the fall of 2020, the thermodynamics course was being taught as a synchronous hybrid courseusing Zoom technology. Attempts were made to increase both student-student connections andstudent-faculty connections using a variety of methods. Student-student

require a paradigm shift in re-conceptualizing their role as a teacher. Due to this difficulty, tapping both individual andcollective capacity are best within the context of professional learning communities (PLCs),which are characterized by shared norms and values, reflective dialogue, de-privatization ofpractice, collective focus on student learning, and collaboration. These PLCs set the foundation,so teachers can begin inquiry into their practice in a new way for increased student learning.The integration of Professional Learning Communities and Project-Based Learning serve toaddress the issues discussed above.

years are always a critical time frame for cultivating students’ interest andpreparedness for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) careers. However,not every student is provided with opportunities to engage, learn and achieve in STEM subjectareas. Engineering topics are further excluded from curricula when the focus is on Science andMathematics. The Public-School District involved in this study has 35,000 students and 75% ofthem are from under-represented minority communities. Over the years, the schools offering ahigh school Algebra-based Physics course decreased as a larger number of schools faced staffing,scheduling, or other issues.

Ethical and Honesty Issues of Web-Based On-Line Courses Compared with Traditional Classroom Courses Harry C. PetersenA number of Manufacturing Engineering Technology classes have been offered both on-line and,in other different years, as traditional face-to-face classroom presentations. Thus we had theopportunity to compare on-line and web-based courses. This paper discusses how issues ofstudent honesty and copyright laws proved to be more problematic for web-enhanced and on-lineclasses. We found that material placed on-line requires significantly more time to apply and re-apply to receive copyright permission, while most printed materials, DVD’s, and samples can beeasily

This shows just how behind the U.S. is compared to China in a lot of technological areas.”Charlie on the Spain/Morocco track expressed his take and indicated: “students could alsoengage in a design and engineering embedded course. This opportunity was not given to usduring my high schooling, and I was assured that my classmates were equally shocked to hearsuch a co-op.”RelatabilityRelatability accounts for international students’ expressions of issues that focus on how theyrelated their experiences during the study abroad to their prior experiences in their homecountries as well
