much research has shown that environmental knowledge does not directly lead topro-environmental behaviors, environmental knowledge can enhance people’s capability anddrive their motivation to perform pro-environmental behaviors [19].2.2.2 Environmental Behavior The theory of planned behavior has been widely used in different fields to understandpeople’s behaviors [20]. In the theory of planned behavior, the individual’s intention decideswhether or not they engage in a behavior or not [21]. Intention is influenced by three factors:attitude toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control [22]. Perceivedbehavioral control represents an individual’s perception of the ability to control the requiredresources and

early spring of 2020. In March, the San Francisco BayArea entered a Shelter-in-Place order and the UC Berkeley campus closed indefinitely. At thattime, the Transfer-to-Excellence program had already confirmed the summer’s faculty hosts andhired a cohort of twenty interns. It was initially unclear how long the campus closure would lastand if a residential TTE program would be possible. As the pandemic continued, the TTEadministrative team made the difficult decision to proceed with a remote program. Eight pairs offaculty hosts and graduate student mentors determined that they would be able to transition theresearch project they had planned for their interns to an online format. Their selected internswere then invited to opt-in to a remote

As K-12 schools, colleges and universities abruptly shut down in early March of 2020due to the unexpected and rapid onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, educators and administratorshad to quickly plan to continue instruction from a widely different perspective.

, theseconversations also led us revise our course plan. For example, we were originally planning to havestudents do multiple shorter immersions in each medical subdiscipline to gain a breadth ofknowledge. However, longer and more focused immersions were recommended since students needsufficient time to adjust to the environment and get quality observations. Third, colleagues who haddeveloped similar courses emphasized the importance of the selection and preparation of the clinicalmentors. Consequently, we put particular attention in our pilot offering in clearly communicatingexpectations with the clinical mentors.

We then describe the Model of Educational Productivity as a frameworkfor studying student, instructional, and environmental factors that may influence conceptual understanding and dis-cuss results from previous studies that suggest additional influencing factors. Finally, we present our planned mixedmethods approach, consisting of an exploratory qualitative stage to identify possible factors that influence conceptualunderstanding, a quantitative analysis to measure understanding and these factors, and an explanatory qualitative phaseto add depth to our quantitative results.
