Typically,students are first exposed to them in their introductory ordinary differential equations (ODEs)course and in either a “rigid body dynamics” [1] and/or a “system dynamics” [2] course, all ofwhich are required courses, vs. an elective course, such as Vibrations. Coverage in a lecture settingis common and in some cases simulation software is used, such as MATLAB/Simulink [3].

Accordingly, during the two long semesters in 2022, we tested ourinnovative online lab teaching strategies in the laboratory sessions with the following activelearning strategies in the laboratory sessions by a) developing and implementing open-endeddesign experiences into lab work, b) establishing teamwork in online labs, c) creating an onlinelearning community and to overcome isolation, and d) incorporating pre-lab simulations and pre-lab video demonstrations. These core lab learning strategies were applied in five EE courses:Circuits, Electronics I & II, Microcomputers, and
