future deployment of a virtual remote learning program that may better prepareincoming students without the challenges related to an in-person format. The design of thisprogram may allow departments and institutions to extend their outreach efforts, recruitment, andstudent preparation to students nationally or internationally.Program Design and FormatThe program was designed as a five-week format that is equivalent to one summer session in thequarter system. The program's target goals included (1) increasing student experiences onimportant technical skills, (2) increasing student professional development skills, and (3)providing students with opportunities to advance their careers. The program was organized intoa morning session focused on

How do you prepare students for that commonality while also preparing them for the specialization of the discipline?

Whilelearning improved significantly [1], the cost and access limitations of the studio classroomsinspired the development of the Mobile Studio to make it possible to utilize studio instructionanywhere and anytime. Three courses were involved in this effort, two in the Electrical

Those students who had access to effective technology (<5% of responses) including a good laptop and adequate internet access at their study location reported the technology made studying easier. Technology also enabled students to engage effectively in online video conference sessions. Some students (<5% of responses) also reported they found the use of non-university online tools helpful, e.g., Slack, Group Chat, and Google Docs. 9% of responses related to technical difficulties of various types (i.e., negative

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Resilient Course Design for Teaching a Project-Based Engineering Course OnlineAbstractDuring emergency remote teaching situations caused by the COVID-19 crisis, students andinstructors in higher education may be dealing with challenges and inequities including increaseduncertainty over health, employment, and finances; inequitable access to synchronous learningopportunities; increased challenges in conducting accurate and equitable online assessments. Forproject-based electrical
engineeringcourses continuous assessment was found to result in better grades, a higher passing rate, higherstudent satisfaction, and better engagement with course activities [2]. Similar effects ofcontinuous assessment have been detected in process engineering [3] and civil and mechanicalengineering [4]. The positive effects may, however, come with the expense of excessiveworkload for the instructors [5]. Therefore, a careful consideration of the ways to apply methodsof continuous assessment is necessary.The first part of the proposed study method is to select a research article that fits the scope of thetopic taught that week and have the students read it independently. The article does not cover thewhole topic of the week but narrows the scope to a
improvement. Survey questions are shown in Table 1. Table 1: Non-numerical survey questions asked to students about flipping the class. # Question 1 How did the videos, lecture notes, and collaboration during the class meetings help you learn the material? 2 What additional teaching aid materials or teaching style were you expecting to see that can improve the pace of your learning? 3 Were the in-class activities (ICAs) helpful in learning the material? If so, explain in what way? If not, how would you prefer this to be changed? 4 Did you work in a team during ICAs? If so, how did that affect your learning? If not, why not? 5 Were the recitation sessions helpful? How did you feel about the frequency and the
