program received NSF support and began conducting formalevaluation of the various program components, including mentoring. For the past year,COVID-19 has both led to unexpected program changes (e.g. a sudden move to fully onlineinstruction) and created new difficulties in collecting data. However, all the mentoring activitiesdescribed earlier were ported to online modality and continued to be offered as planned. Thuswe see value in using this small, somewhat anomalous data set as part of our ongoing formativeassessment of the program, and believe it has utility in helping us shape the next, post-COVIDphase of our work. Four students who served as mentors for the PINC program were interviewed in smallgroups in May of 2020 and four more

It is important for students to begin planning and to haveconversations around pursuing an engineering degree in high school with individuals who areknowledgeable about different possible careers.School counselors can help foster an environment that supports development of high schoolstudents as future engineers. Their role in schools tasks them with preparing students for futurecareer choices (Lewis, 2013). Prior research has concluded that lack of time and basicknowledge about engineering is a barrier for school counselors when advising students aboutpursuing engineering careers (Beck

students have limited exposure to engineering education, especially civilengineering. To fill this knowledge gap, the authors’ offered a new college-level, civilengineering course to high school students. Initial course planning anticipated an on-campusenvironment with a focus on hands-on learning. Due to COVID-19 and the university system’sresponse, the course shifted to an online platform. In this new setting, the course incorporatedboth synchronous and asynchronous modules with 18 students from geographicallocations spanning 11 time zones. The students had diverse prior exposure to civil engineering,virtual learning environments, and active learning techniques.

We tried putting time spent at the end ofeach day, plus a total at the end of the coding trail. We found though that teachers were most interestedin the total time; the detailed breakdown was interesting but not so important as to clutter the codingtrail.

. 1Pandemic Impacts on Faculty CareersIn early 2020, as COVID-19 cases spread across the United States, university administratorsbegan to plan institutional responses. While the full scope of the pandemic was yet unknown, itwas clear COVID-19 would greatly affect normal university operations. By mid-March, manyuniversities had suspended in-person classes and closed student housing, shuttered research labs,banned university sponsored travel, and asked faculty and staff to work from home. At the sametime, many states instituted “stay-at-home” orders for all but essential personnel, leaving schoolsand childcare centers closed. Faced with these new employment conditions, and in many casesvastly increased caregiving demands, faculty adjusted their day-to

technology advancement, the challenges of online instruction can be daunting as seen inthe lack of immediacy or engagement between instructors and students. Course design is asystematic planning process for developing learning experiences and it aims at ensuring learningoutcomes, assessments and activities support one another to provide students the best opportunityto learn [19]. The appropriateness of a course for online delivery relies on its consistent structurewhich allows learning, communication, and collaboration. As a result, the ease of online learningdepends on factors including cognitive complexity of course design elements such as alignmentbetween instruction and assessments, active pedagogy, and faculty support [19].
