students applied had an August 17 start date. A fifth project started in late Augustwith a national laboratory. This student was funded from a current grant active at the university.The selected student was an international graduate student who was overseas at the time, and thedelayed start was due to the processing time for CPT, security, and grant paperwork. This studentcould begin the internship overseas and complete it after returning to Oregon State University forthe Fall term. The last two projects involved direct hiring by the employer partner and did notutilize the technology platform due to company security concerns. These began in late Augustand ended in early October. One of these two students was also an international student.Phase 3

value of writing as a tool for uncovering a student’s misconceptionshas been noted in other disciplines such as the medical field [21]. Unfortunately, grading andproviding feedback to students on their written work is time consuming. This burden on instructortime may be a factor why, beyond common written works such as laboratory reports, courses suchas electric circuit analysis or statics and dynamics are almost exclusively computation based. Theauthors of this paper do not suggest eliminating computation problems in gateway STEM courses,but rather to complement such problems with conceptual writing exercises as such exercises maybe the key to effecting conceptual change particularly in the case of robust misconceptions.The remainder of this

Only one program (MS Data Science) had taught classes in remote mode using Webex.  Class meetings: Although some faculty held classes synchronously, some opted for asynchronous pre-recorded videos, and a few faculty used an intentional flipped course approach. Some faculty also relied upon publicly available (e.g., YouTube) videos.  Labs: In the absence of any physical laboratory experiment set ups, many faculty opted to emphasize simulation and analysis of data
