requirements, such as team activities, project approach,project reports, designing, and building prototypes. This work will be beneficial to other educatorsto style their experiential learning approaches in the Hybrid format.IntroductionIncorporating online-based techniques with traditional teaching is an interesting idea and is inpractice at several institutions.1-4 How do these activities impact on learning varies.5-9 Like othercolleges, at our institution, we have used an online system to teach students during the pandemic.The university has developed an online platform via canvas (learning management system) andzoom. Online learning is not the newest10-16 exits for long period and popular form of distancelearning. It has had a major influence on

result of the experiments is that a statistically significant AC signal, produced only whenexposed to sound, thereby proves that sound is causing the electrical signal. It is extremely likelythat, when scaled up and in the right conditions, our device could supply usable electricity byrecovering energy from the sound.IntroductionThis paper investigate a small-scale project that illustrates the potential of using sound energy asa means of creating electrical energy to be stored and reused. The objective of this project was tocreate a a prototype device that could convert sound and vibrational energy to a voltage that couldbe captured on a small scale. Although the main goal of the device was to provide a proof ofconcept, the ideas outlined in

UAV education [Sadraey2020]. Sadraey outlines techniques and challenges he discovered while presenting constructiontechniques of UAVs in a traditional classroom setting. Here he states that, “The root cause forthe lack of convergence between UAV education and practical application is the absence ofexperiential learning. The UAV experience requires students to develop skills such as … in datareduction, analysis, communication, and teamwork.”This paper presents the first phase of our experience with a two-phase project addressing theteaching, implementation, and assessment of online active learning modules in undergraduateintroduction to engineering and physics courses designed to engross students in the process ofadvanced manufacturing

southernhemisphere. There is no precession at the equator and the pendulum keeps swinging in the samedirection. Our small-scale Foucault’s Pendulum experiments were carried out in two differentcountries as an independent study by a sophomore engineering student. Project Based Learning(PBL) was applied in this study. Since Foucault’s experiment is in such a big scale, logistically itis hard to demonstrate it at schools. The aim of this study was to create a small-scale pendulumso other students and teachers around the world can easily build one to prove the Earth’srotation. Using a small-scale setup, about 3 meters in length, we studied the effects of the Earth’srotation on the pendulum’s precession with identical materials (i.e., object’s mass and size
