These arearchived in our study center repository for future use. When attendance is expected to be high foran EIG session, a second peer tutor will assist with leading the session.Orchestrating technological tools such as Google Forms (available on our website for studentregistration and feedback), Zoom, Zoom whiteboards and XP-pens allow our session leads toemulate many of the features of in-person EIGs. Utilizing these multimedia tools and innovativestrategies, our team persisted, and we continued providing valuable academic support services toengineering students in a remote environment. Over

peers.Following this lecture, solo presentations took place in a town hall setting. Students wererequired to act as a representative for their team, advocating their project design. Thispresentation was recorded using classroom streaming technology and posted on the course site.Each student was asked to review themself on this recording with a rubric and make commentsin an individual reflection. They also received feedback from both their instructors and peers inan online survey format. While this later section was designed to challenge the student in aformal setting, reflection and feedback remained the focal point of the assignment.In the fall semester of 2020, a class of 28 students was surveyed about this unit and 22 responseswere received.
