significantly affected.Introduction and Background It is easy to say that the COVID-19 pandemic challenged teaching techniques andprocedures at traditional institutions of higher education, but quantifying these consequences ofCOVID is difficult, especially for engineering specialties. Did students perform better inengineering classes thanks to the responsiveness and availability of online instruction, or did theysuffer with the loss of laboratories and demonstrations in the standard classroom? Numerous researchers have grappled with this question, across many disciplines andaround the world. Fundamentally, it appears that COVID lockdown periods, especially thoseearly in the pandemic’s development (2020), increased the state of stress

The ETECdepartment is working tirelessly to introduce new educational opportunities for students to be moreprepared for industry professionals via some certification programs. Few examples are NationalOccupational Competency Testing Institute (NOCTI) certification for Fiji Automatic Numerical Control(FANUC) robot operating license for Electronics and Computer Engineering Technology (ECET);National Center for Construction and Education Research (NCCER) certification for different degreeprograms and modules; Agile certification for industry professionals to grow; PE exam eligibility andpreparation for Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) students and/or professionals; and ProjectManagement Professional

She spent last academic year at Cal State LA where she taught and collaborated on research related to equity and social justice. With her colleagues at Cal State LA she recently received an NSF grant called Eco- STEM which aims to transform STEM education using an asset-based ecosystem model. Specifically, the Eco-STEM project focuses on shifting the metaphor in STEM education from a factory model to an ecosystem model. This Ecosystem model aspires towards an organic and healthy environment that nurtures students, faculty, and staff to become individuals fulfilled professionally and personally.

be looking for college graduates, including engineers, with some sort ofinternational exposure. Hence, many universities and colleges have developed and aredeveloping methods to expose their students to international culture, business and engineeringpractices. Traditional methods involve exchanges of students and/or faculty between a U. S.institution and a foreign one. Types of exchange include: the exchange of graduate orundergraduate students with another institution for part of their education; the exchange ofgraduate students for research efforts; and, the exchange of faculty for purposes of research orteaching. Other methods involve the teaching of globalized culture, business and engineeringcourses at the U. S. institutions, and
instrumentsfor examining research hypotheses utilizes case study approaches. Case methodology in researchhas long been lauded as an effective method for rigorously addressing research hypotheses.Applying this method to teaching attempts to stimulate the students by encouraging them to ask“how” and “why” questions of their own. By addressing these questions using a case-basedmethod of instruction, education receives two significant benefits 3:1. Students must apply and hone their critical thinking skills, e.g. defining issues, using sound reasoning, and making decisions.2. Instructors maintain important ties with industry through the development and use of cases in the classroom.A third benefit is that interactive seminar courses offer an essential
