Engineering schools were ex-panded at home, and in addition, students were sent to study in Russianuniversities. At the same time, the government developed its philosophyof education. Mao s support during the liberation depended on the peasants and 1workers and while Mao recognized the need for an educated populace, hewanted to place restrictions on the development of an intellectual class.The result was that the state or rulers took the right and responsibilityto improve society by using education to improve the moral conduct of thepeople.

During the program, the teachers are taught introductory weather science,the IDV visualization software basics, and how to obtain free weather data from the National Oceanicand Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Restrictions due to the COVID19 pandemic requiredmodifications to our planned initial year activities, but we were able to pilot and obtain feedback toimprove the program.

The answersto these questions are invariably that engineering technology programs are based on the practicalapplication of engineering with graduates working to support licensed engineers/architects. Inaddition, engineering programs are theory and design based with graduates focused on designingand managing projects [1]. Students enrolled in Architectural Engineering Technology Programswho plan to become registered architects face an additional challenge however depending on thestate that they plan to seek licensure.

Ten faculty teaching first- and second-year Engineering courses participated in the first cohort of ISE-2 in Summer 2017, which consisted of three workshops and six informal “coffee conversations”. At the conclusion of the workshops, each faculty was tasked with completing a teaching plan for the Fall 2017 semester, to incorporate the strategies and knowledge from ISE-2 into the courses they plan to teach. Focus groups with the ISE-2 faculty were conducted in Fall 2017 to obtain feedback about the faculty development program. Classroom observations were
