The College of Engineering's vast network of existingsupport programs is being leveraged in tandem with strategically planned activities to providethe cohorts with academic, financial, and career development, and personal support. Explicitlyproviding CREATE scholars with the resources that are part of the hidden curriculum [6] willgive them additional resources to develop social capital [7- 9] and increase their feelings ofbelongingness in engineering, especially for first-generation engineering students [10]. As part of the project, a mixed-methods research study is being carried out to examine theeffect of the implemented practices on the scholars' engineering interest, self-efficacy, andidentity.

For the past year,COVID-19 has both led to unexpected program changes (e.g. a sudden move to fully onlineinstruction) and created new difficulties in collecting data. However, all the mentoring activitiesdescribed earlier were ported to online modality and continued to be offered as planned. Thuswe see value in using this small, somewhat anomalous data set as part of our ongoing formativeassessment of the program, and believe it has utility in helping us shape the next, post-COVIDphase of our work.

It is important for students to begin planning and to haveconversations around pursuing an engineering degree in high school with individuals who areknowledgeable about different possible careers.School counselors can help foster an environment that supports development of high schoolstudents as future engineers. Their role in schools tasks them with preparing students for futurecareer choices (Lewis, 2013).

. 1Pandemic Impacts on Faculty CareersIn early 2020, as COVID-19 cases spread across the United States, university administratorsbegan to plan institutional responses. While the full scope of the pandemic was yet unknown, itwas clear COVID-19 would greatly affect normal university operations. By mid-March, manyuniversities had suspended in-person classes and closed student housing, shuttered research labs,banned university sponsored travel, and asked faculty and staff to work from home. At the sametime, many states instituted “stay-at-home” orders for all but essential personnel, leaving schoolsand childcare centers closed. Faced with these new employment conditions, and in many casesvastly increased caregiving demands, faculty adjusted their day-to

Course design is asystematic planning process for developing learning experiences and it aims at ensuring learningoutcomes, assessments and activities support one another to provide students the best opportunityto learn [19]. The appropriateness of a course for online delivery relies on its consistent structurewhich allows learning, communication, and collaboration. As a result, the ease of online learningdepends on factors including cognitive complexity of course design elements such as alignmentbetween instruction and assessments, active pedagogy, and faculty support [19].

Coupled with the EWS, we used data from students’ use of variousinstructional technologies during the course through a digital coaching application calledE2Coach. The E2Coach system provides students with a variety of resources including:weekly help messages, exam preparation (before the exam) and reflection (after theexam) tools, a weekly checklist of tasks that will help students prepare for the class, agrade calculator so students can estimate their grade based on past and planned futureperformance, and various online systems for reviewing academic
