starting to move farther into the DBRwork by planning a round of interviews to check in with those involved.As we engage in these iterations for our local context, we are also looking at how this teaming modelcould be sustainable for others. For example, others would likely have to resolve issues of group size andfinding a time in order to realize this vision. While such contextual features might prevent literalpropagation of the teaming model, a different view is that the current teaming model might inspire newconfigurations in these other contexts, and then such additional configurations could be added to the bodyof work we are starting here. As an example, the lead author of this paper recently attended a 2-daymeeting where each of the ten

This research presents outcomes froma planned transition to active/flexible hybrid delivery that was accelerated into the rotation ofoffered course modes due to the pandemic [2]. Results are compared with traditional sections ofthe course offered from Spring 2020 to Fall 2021. The course is an introductory survey course ofthe principles of engineering management for undergraduate engineering students. It is arequired course in the Engineering Management bachelor’s degree program but is popular withmany students in other engineering majors. Typically, about a third of the students enrolled inthe course are Engineering Management majors or intend to major in Engineering Managementonce they complete the

Simply because they "don't have the time to do so." When I see my engineering friends stressing about things or telling me about their schedules, I feel overwhelmed for them. However, my confidence for future success declines because I hear how much everyone else is doing. I feel that I am not doing enough, but I do not wish to put myself through the stress that

The main purpose of these storm shelters is to protect its human occupantsduring extreme-wind events, not to protect possessions. For this reason, shelters tend to berelatively small, thereby occupying only a fraction of the floor plan of the home. Because of theirsize, their assimilation into new and existing constructions is relatively simple and inexpensive.While human losses to extreme-wind events are lower (under 100 per year7) than thoseassociated with highway traffic accidents (over 40,000 per year6), the uncertainty and devastationassociated with these natural disasters make them among the most terrifying experiences knownto man.

As such, one of the high-priority tasks was to extend and optimize the run time of the videopayload.

This socialcapital deficit can appear for undergraduate engineering students in the following ways: (a) lackof access to social supports for career planning, (b) lack of awareness or comfortability withseeking support from university resources including faculty and career centers, and (c) lack offamilial emotional support for their career path (Martin, Millers & Simmons, 2014).
