enabling students (a) to identify the types, sizes,and movement of particles that are found in air, particularly those that are expelled during normalhuman activity, and (b) to characterize the material properties that influence the control of thesedifferent particles. A specific focus was placed on the use of face masks made from common textilematerials. The “Mask Effectiveness” project required the development of Excel-based animations andtools that encourage students to explore relationships between air pollutants and materials science.The tool was developed such that it provides a solution to the limitations of a student design projectfor online and hybrid courses. By engaging with the computer-based Excel tool, students are ableto

Among the student comments, therewas a strong correlation to the lack of personal engagement, increased distractions, decreasedmotivation, hesitancy to engage in class discussions and the lesser ability to develop rapport withpeers and professors.References[1] Z.

’, or ‘ancillary’. Definitions of each classification arefound in Table 1.B. After classification, each activity is examined considering COVID-19impacts, i.e., was the activity modified during the pandemic? If so, was the change positive ornegative? Further, does the change represent an opportunity to ‘bounce forward’ and enhance 5resilience (Step 5)? The individual responsible for the activity is likely in the best position toanswer these questions. The last step (6) is implementation, which can include making changespermanent, synergizing like efforts, and creating timelines for execution.Figure 2.

aware of the policy making process in regards to climate change, and how difficult it is, compared to my previous perspective that countries need to/can easily stop polluting the environment.” B “This course showed me the complexities in addressing climate change. Before the course, I thought solving climate change was a simple matter of reducing emissions. However, now I understand addressing climate change involves not only mitigation but adaptation and loss and damage as well. I also learned about equitable climate policy, the differences in the opinions of developed and developing countries, economics, rhetoric, etc. All of this showed me that climate

The agreement range (agree and strongly agree) responses and thedisagreement range (disagree and strongly disagree) were

anyelements of the program influence your post-program academic and/or professionaldevelopment?” and provided a free-form response. The responses were coded and could becategorized broadly into experiences that were mainly technical (n=13) or mainly cultural (n=6).Seven participants reported experiences from both categories were impactful. For example,Respondent A states: “After visiting a few treatment plants in Sweden, I was interested inlearning more about water treatment… I now work for a firm that specializes in water treatmentand have spent my young career working on solutions to different issues related to water,”indicating the impact of a primarily technical visit on career direction and choice. On the otherhand, Respondent B writes, “Taking
