[6],considering some limitations, as mentioned later in this paper. Initially, it was thought thatworkshops could be held in groups to promote collaborative work with a 90-minute duration;however, the school itself requested that the workshops last 60 minutes each with individualexperimentation. The structure of the workshop is shown below: 1. Trigger questions aimed at evoking prior subject knowledge. 2. Contextualize the workshop content with a short PowerPoint presentation. 3. Response to worksheets (Prediction). 4. Children shared their answers, and a discussion was generated on the phenomena and concepts given their previous knowledge (Q&A). 5. Experimentation and demonstrations. They were provided with material to
learning [7-9], there remains more work to be done tostudy how instructors and students cope with the continuously changing global conditions, 2especially at regional campuses with small classes sizes. The paper also assesses the student’sbehavior and attitudes as they navigated their courses during this transition. In-classparticipation, attendance, and active Q&A with the instructor during the online lecture sessionsare used as pointers to assess the motivation of students in class. Faculty interactions with thestudents while they are in the class describe a certain level of motivation. Timely completion ofthe assignments, punctual attendance
during “our” class period. During the class perioditself, 2-5 presenters began with a brief overview of the key science concepts related to theactivity (usually with 1-3 questions for the audience) before breaking out into small groups toexecute the activity. During this time, the volunteers would circulate among students and helptroubleshoot experiment issues or engage in further discussion with the students in the smallgroup setting. Finally, the full group came back together to summarize the activity, answeradditional questions, and provide space for Q&A on "what it means to be a materials scientist”.The second in-person outreach modality was based around events hosted at the University ofMichigan, typically as part of a broader event

Q: Did the projects help you to apply linear algebra to solve real world problems?122/166 (76.5 %) strongly agreed on that the projects empower them to apply the knowledgeto real situations. Q: Please indicate how the component of application projects impact your learning if you agreewith the obove question 15 Student1: The applications were very useful and helped me strengthen my Matlab skills and see the benefits of linear algebra in real life. Student2: The projects
promotes richer discussions as the non-presenting studentscan rely on their notes to participate in the conversations. When allowing for questions-and-answers between presentations, it is best practice for the instructor to collect the completedKLIQED sheets only after the Q&A session for the last presentation has ended.Preliminary Results and DiscussionWe used the KLIQED tool during oral presentations of student projects in courses we recentlytaught at our institutions in the Fall of 2022. The courses were in economics and biomedicalengineering with a total of 169 students enrolled. We collected the KLIQED sheets completed bystudents and shared the feedback comments with presenting students. At the end of the semester,we also surveyed

One, StudentQ, explained, “I would prefer exams over presentations, but I like the researchpapers”.Student Q expressed displeasure with the knowledge gained from the researchassignment: These papers/presentations, as far as individual research is concerned, do not give us a full scope of the reg(ulation)s.

perspective.Case #1: Epistemological PrivilegingImagine a student who is in an introductory college physics course. This student engages withthe material, wanting to learn about electric fields and the forces exerted by electrostatic charges.She engages readily in conversation with her three group mates and always pushes the group fora mathematical explanation, unsatisfied with an understanding purely based on physicalexamples. She also does all of her homework. Here is the problem: unlike the rest of her group,she is not getting the fundamental physical concepts behind the formation of electric fields andthe application of the equation E = F / q. The question is: why?Lising and Elby [27] investigated this question with a thorough qualitative study that

whichversions of all first year classes are being developed for this MOOC environment with options toreceive college credit from Arizona State University (ASU). Through this program, learners cantake a course completely for free in the “audit track” which allows them access to all coursematerial, but does not provide instructor grading of assignments or any kind of “verified”certificate of completion. For these students, the course is treated much like a traditionalMOOC, but with the benefit of an instructional team that includes professors who monitor andparticipate in discussion boards and host live “Q&A” video sessions throughout the course. Theinnovative aspect of this course is that there is a parallel track that students can opt into
