Alvarado, National University, USA Kristina Bodamer, Edinboro College, USA Jennifer Zaur, The University of Arizona Global Campus, USA ABSTRACT This brief practice-based paper discusses the importance of retaining adult learners by engaging, motivating and retaining them in the online classroom environment. More specifically, the major focus is on research-based and practitioner supported strategies that prove to be successful. Motivation theory and Roviai’s model of persistence will be covered, as well as a discussion of what attributes successful online learners possess. Self-confidence, time management, locus of control and self-efficacy will be covered. A connection to Andragogy (adult learning theory) will be integrated along with a discussion of research-based strategies for the support of adult learners in ensuring they are engaged, motivated and retained in the online learning environment.

Designers are resourceful. This unforgettable year has challenged all faculty, regardless of discipline or program level, to create new opportunities for their students to obtain professional experience during their education. While formal internship opportunities may have decreased during the pandemic, our faculty has reestablished and reimagined a student-run design studio concept where students create design solutions for clients. The structure of this design studio is similar to that of professional practice where students have strict deadlines and budgets. Research Several faculty members correspond with area companies and non-profits who have reached out to our department for design and marketing assistance. The faculty select the most promising projects for the students to work on for the next semester. Relate Faculty then select upper-level undergraduate students to work individually or in teams as is required by the number and complexity of projects undertaken for the semester. Faculty serve as account executives; working with clients and students to identify deliverables and to enforce deadlines. Resolve Faculty and students meet on a weekly basis, currently on Zoom to check-in and discuss progress. In the post-Covid- 19 world, faculty and students will meet weekly in the student design studio space on campus. Students follow design thinking strategies as they conduct research, create concepts, prepare client presentations, participate in feedback sessions and critiques, confer with vendors and experts, conduct testing, and execute their solutions for professional implementation. Represent This poster will highlight some of the professional projects undertaken by the student design team during Spring Semester 2021 with emphasis given to the project briefs and expectations, deliverables, and outcomes. © Copyright by author(s) 110-1 The Clute Institute 2021 IACB, ICE, ICTE, & ISEC Proceedings Spring Virtual Conference Fashion Sustainability And Business Almerinda Forte, St. John’s University, USA ABSTRACT Ethics in business strengthens the global economy and the environment. With the pressure from media, and the increasing awareness of sustainable fashion, the fashion industry has been forced to develop more sustainable patterns of production and consumption (Han, Seo, & Ko, 2017). Our environment is taking exceptional strain as a result of the manufacturing processes of several industries, with the fashion industry ranking as one of the worst industries when it comes to ethical manufacturing (Mukendi et al., 2020). Governments, regulatory bodies, businesses, communities, and consumers must work together to increase the practice of corporate social responsibility in firms. © Copyright by author(s) 111-1 The Clute Institute 2021 IACB, ICE, ICTE, & ISEC Proceedings Spring Virtual Conference Towards Elimination Of Students’ Misconceptions In Science: Case Of Drama And Concept Mapping Strategies On Chemical Bonding In Nigeria Inibehe Sunday Etokeren, Rivers State University, Nigeria Jane I.Alamina, Rivers State University, Nigeria. ABSTRACT Misconceptions constitute a major problem to teaching and learning of science. Apart from hindering assimilation and accommodation of knowledge, it provides a barrier to students’ conceptual understanding. This study therefore, focused on eliminating students’ misconceptions about chemical bonding by application of drama teaching strategy. Mixed method design, specifically, exploratory mixed method design was adopted with the sample of 174 SS2 Students. The instruments were Chemical Bonding Misconceptions Diagnostic Test and Interview Schedule. The reliability coefficient of 0.87 for the Chemical Bonding Misconceptions Diagnostic Test was determined by test retest method. Careful piloting of interview schedule was carried out to ensure validity. Percentages were used to answer research questions and hypotheses tested with Analysis of Covariance at 0.05 level of significance. Findings showed that, drama teaching strategy caused substantial reduction in high extents of students’ misconceptions about chemical bonding. Similar substantial reduction in high extents of students’ misconceptions was obtained on teaching with concept mapping strategy. This implies that students’ misconceptions were corrected. There was no significant
