Accounts involving students, both scholarship recipients and others, whohave engaged in capstone projects related to the nuclear power industry are also discussed. Thefindings of the first- and second-year assessments on student outreach and educational goals areshared. We provide an update on the status of the program, and summarize lessons learned as aguide for other programs in support of nuclear workforce development.II.

In 2019, aware of the documented benefitsof the flipped classroom model, the author restructured the course to implement a flippedinstructional mode, creating a library of pre-lecture videos and accompanying in-class learningexercises in hopes of increasing student engagement and creating more opportunities to interactwith the students. In fall 2020, like many other instructors, the author found herself movingclasses online as a result of COVID-19 [9] [10] [11], though unlike her other classes that existedonly on paper in three-ring binders, the existing pre-lecture videos and course structure forStatics and Mechanics of Materials allowed the author to adapt it to online learning with relativeease.Thus, over a
