Washburn, Kristine; Bragg, Debra D.
Community College Journal of Research and Practice, v46 n1-2 p49-59 2022
Everett Community College (EvCC) made numerous changes to retain and support students enrolled in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education during the coronavirus pandemic. Drawing on insights from EvCC faculty and staff affiliated with a National Science Foundation (NSF) S-STEM scholarship grant called the "EvCC STEM Scholar" program, as well as interview data gathered from 23 EvCC students, this article reports on curricular and co-curricular changes to better meet student needs during COVID-19. Results reveal efforts EvCC faculty and staff took to keep students on track to complete the STEM pathway and how students experienced college during the peak of the pandemic. The article concludes with lessons learned and plans made by EvCC faculty and staff to improve STEM education in the future.
