Authority has been studied related to other issues likeclassroom and laboratory work, but reading/following directions is not central to these studies[42]. A third possible explanation is that female students who self-select into engineering arebetter students on average than male students, which would involve a subset from other studiesof first-year college students [43]. This third hypothesis could be examined using standardizedtest scores or high school grades or rank. Since most students in the MEB course are in theirsecond semester of their engineering education, only one semester of grade data is available fromtheir university transcripts.When focusing on higher education, few examples of

Many change initiatives and models thathave been utilized to study and promote change have failed to achieve the adoption of research-based instructional practices at universities [8], [9]. Similar trends in research have beenidentified within engineering education [10]. Thus, it is evident that alternative and more holisticways to understand and support change are needed.The COVID-19 pandemic created a real-world laboratory to explore what instructional practicesand strategies were changed and sustained when instructors were forced to use new instructionalmethods under uncertain situations

A lack of engagement andlower successful completion rates have been shown in online physics courses [24] as reported byMurphy and Stewart. Murphy and Stewart used eight years of data with 3,032 students tocompare face-to-face lecture courses with three semesters of a hybrid course with online lecturesand face-to-face laboratories.

One of the challenges includes engaging in a newacademic environment [2] and the academic challenges that come alongside that. Thesechallenges can be discipline-specific and are often unaddressed by the larger school-wide supportsystems. For example, understanding where to get tutoring support for specific technical classesor the differences between laboratory and lecture-based courses. Discipline-specific academicadvisors do offer this support to students, but many international students aren’t sure whatsupport they should be seeking in terms of academic items.

Thus,the sheer scale of traditional engineering work with sometimes rare interactions with theindividuals most impacted may make empathy (and perhaps by extension kindness) moredifficult among engineering in comparison to professions like medicine (e.g., doctors meetingwith single patients). Thus, the notion of ‘care’ may be more applicable to the engineeringprofession in the context of this broader impact of our work, while kindness is more relevant inengineering education as we interact with individual students.The hidden curriculum through engineering courses that do not seem to embody kindness orcaring might convey to
