the level of utility value students perceived could explain approximately half of thevariance (51%) in their intention to pursue an engineering career. [6]. Based on this research, we expect thatsuccess and usefulness will both predict empowerment.The success factor of the MUSIC inventory measures the perception that one can succeed in the relevantacademic work if they put forth the effort [1]. Several different human motivation theories serve as thefoundation for this factor. Bandura’s now-classic self-efficacy theory [7], Covington’s self-worth theory [8],goal orientation theory [9], and expectancy-value theory [10] all address achievement motivation and success/competency. In fact, competency is now considered to be a basic human need [11

inspection reveals a body of work that includes thought leadership, collegialconversation, and critical analysis of the impacts of the pandemic on all areas and concernstypically considered in the engineering education community. Scholars have documented andexplored emergency remote teaching (ERT) and the implications to or impacts on acceptedteaching pedagogies and teaching modalities, student learning and self-efficacy beliefs,challenges and opportunities with hands-on learning, and the systemic challenges related toinclusivity, equity, access, and engagement in engineering higher education. The enormity of theimpact of the pandemic is underscored by the language of the pandemic ERT literatureincorporating terms like disruption, survival, and
