author: mselsaad@uark.eduIntroductionImmersive virtual reality (VR) based laboratory demonstrations have been gaining traction inSTEM education. VR may serve as a valuable tool not just for remote learning but also tobroaden outreach, reduce waste, enhance safety, generate increased interest, and modernizeeducation. VR holds great potential to complement existing education strategies [1, 2]. However,to ensure better utilization of VR-based education, it is pivotal to perform optimizations of VRimplementation, in-depth analyses of advantages and trade-offs of the technology, andassessment of receptivity of modern techniques in STEM education [1, 3, 4].There have been several studies that tested the effectiveness of VR in the educational field

STEM educationkeeps students engaged and results in improved retention of knowledge on topics taught [2], [4].While traditional lectures are still the most common way of teaching, many universities arefocusing more attention on more student-centered activities.Engineering education highly relies on practical applications. Laboratories are the most commonway of practicing engineering theory. Knowledge gained from engineering laboratories is beingused for applying engineering applications to real life design of processes and development ofproducts [5].

However, the technique is absent inthe mechanical engineering Capstone literature; presumably because it is not used elsewhere tosupport ME senior design. Some casting examples do exist in ME manufacturing laboratoryclasses [ii,iii], but predominantly simulation is used in leu of the physical casting process to aidstudent learning and understanding of underlying phenomena.

course description for Numerical Computing for Chemical Engineers course at MissouriUniversity of Science and Technology states that students will “add to their programming skillsby exploring numerical computational techniques for … chemical engineering processes.” Thechallenge is that the course is taught early in the curriculum before the students know what thosechemical engineering processes are. The course has been structured as a flipped class with classtime devoted to solving problems with the numerical tools. To provide relevance for the material,an experimental component has been added to the course. In the laboratory sessions, the studentsconduct a brief experiment or activity and then analyze that process using the
