may buffer students from stress, thereby improving mental health [15]. Tinto’swidely cited model of college student attrition [16] concludes that the key to effective retentionis in a commitment to quality education and the building of a strong sense of inclusiveeducational and social community on campus. For a college student, a sense of belonging andacademic persistence is inextricably linked to the use of campus services, and good mental health[17]. The mental health impact of social isolation caused by the pandemic erodes the opportunityfor students to establish belongingness in their college community, thus threatening their mentalwellbeing and persistence to complete their educational goal. Smith, et.al [18] found that thepandemic

Additionally, it was deemed important for the Dominican students to learn what engineersand technologists do, the various types of engineers and technologists that exist, the types ofproblems they solve, and the impact they can have on society, especially the Dominican society.Because of their prior exposure with the Boston Museum of Science’s Engineering isElementary (EIE) curriculum, the (university name) students and faculty identified the EIEengineering design cycle as the model to guide the

The robotprogramming led to student collaboration, increased motivation for mathematics, and anintroduction to block-based programming.

Several publications have been written about various approaches to addressingthis need (e.g. see Herkert, 2000 [4]). The current state of affairs is a wide-array of pedagogiesused in undergraduate engineering education to teach ethics, ranging from direct lectures onmoral philosophy, to courses based on community service, to the use of online ethics tutorials.While there is an abundance of techniques for conveying ethics education, comparatively littlework has been done in assessing the impact of these techniques on students.
