smallgatherings of socially distanced students, lab courses at Missouri S&T were allowed to be inperson with very small groups. These caps did not accommodate all students in many cases.Thus, other approaches were required. For the Fall, the faculty tried a tight schedule of teamsboth inside and outside of the designated lab time. Social distancing guidelines were maintained,but the faculty and TAs were overworked. Late that semester, the instructor for the ChemicalEngineering Unit Operations (UO) Lab 1 announced that he would be leaving.The responsibility for taking over the lab was handed over to the author. I had taught the UO laba few times at another university, so I was not a complete novice. The equipment at my current
high school GPA,but a marginally lower math ACT/SAT than the ECI 6-week participants. Even with this profile,the ECI 5-day participants outperformed the latter group in two outcomes: change in mathmastery and first math course GPA. The ECI 6-week program did have a slightly higher numberof students who entered into Calculus I based on ALEKS after completing the program.There are tradeoffs for decreasing the number of in-person program days, but the essence of thesafe space was maintained. In the future, it would be valuable to determine if the new model stillaids in underrepresented minority student retention and graduation.References[1] S. Wischusen and E.W.

the types of problems that engineers solve.Some students responded that engineers solved challenging or Complex Problems; for example,engineers “[s]olve complex problems using their knowledge of how things work.” Other studentsdescribed the problems as Everyday Problems or Technical Problems. Both categories includemultiple similar ideas about the types of problems engineers solve for a living. Respectively,“[t]hey solve everyday problems and try to improve on ideas and products that could functionbetter” and “I believe engineers solve scientific problems to make the world better.” Somestudents combined the descriptive subcategories in their responses.

suggestions the same for large and small course sizes? These andother topics will be explored as we delve into the new (yet old) environment of online learningduring Covid.BackgroundThroughout the early 2000’s, education over the internet was debated. Some felt it would be atransformative power that would equalize education across time, space, gender, income andnation. Others felt that nothing could take the place of in-person education and anything elsewas inferior. Some universities jumped on the MOOC bandwagon (Massive Open OnlineCourses). Others saw no merit in offering massive courses for little or no credit to multitudes ofpeople for free.There were also many interpretations of online learning throughout the early 2000’s.

An administrator can register the students andmonitor the progress of the students on each course. The program is a self-paced program that canbe completed by each student on their own. However, four-hour-long weekly meetings werearranged with students as a group, and program materials were studied and completed together infive weeks for better control and efficiency.

hands-on labs which require only a single virtual machine, container-based solutions, such asProxMox VE (OpenVZ) and Docker, should be considered. They are easy to set up and do notrequire much resources. These types of labs can also be hosted on a public cloud such as GCP orAWS. For hands-on labs using a complex virtual environment with multiple virtual machines, aprivate cloud may be a better choice. Private cloud and public cloud can be complementary and beused together to improve online learning experience.References 1 T. Ercan, "Effective use of cloud computing in educational institutions."
