As life, school and internships return to normal in 2021 and beyond, the Virtual internship intervention can still play a valuable role in the experiential learning landscape. However, higher education institutions may need to intentionally de-couple the educational innovations rapidly developed during the COVID-19 pandemic from being ‘pandemic solutions’ to valuable alternatives that provide equitable and scalable access to educational opportunities and proactively invest in their continued sustainability and

Othersargue that integrating the STEM disciplines through engineering has the potential to improvestudents’ knowledge and perceptions of engineering as a profession as well as encourage morestudents to pursue STEM related careers2,11. Thus, it seems that within the K-12 setting,engineering might be best addressed within integrated STEM classrooms.Realizing the promises listed above of integrated efforts in the classroom, however, will requireat a minimum adequate professional development, institutional structures that supportintegration, and quality integrated curricula around which teachers can develop their instruction.Each of these in turn will

GIFTS: MAJOR exposure through engineering innovationsAs a first-year engineering instructor on the first day of class, someone invariably asks whatdiscipline of engineering they should go into. Not knowing the particular background of theseindividuals, it is difficult to give them meaningful advice on the spot. First-year students (andtheir parents) have an expectation that the first-year course will “help” them decide whatdiscipline the student should major in. However, introducing students to various fields ofengineering may not be the main foci of the course, as many first-year programs have evolvedtowards the inclusion of curricular content such as design, entrepreneurship, writing, and/orprogramming.

It is assumed that most K-12teachers have little knowledge of engineering and technology when embarking in STOMP.
