This project deviates from typical program structurein that the sponsor company is a non-engineering department at the same academic institutionrather than a true industry sponsor. Functionally the roles remain the same with the addedcomponent that engineering students are now designing for an end-user they share traits with:undergraduate students.The University of Florida’s Food Science Department boasts an impressive laboratory wherestudents and professors explore the complexities of food science. Since many machines andsystems in the pilot plant are highly technical and modern, the department decided it was time toreplace their vacuum evaporation system, whose year of origin is unknown.

measures. Here, we present a comparison of the efficacy of a hands-on integratedmode of conducting physics experiments via experiment-centric pedagogy (ECP) with thetraditional laboratory mode (non-ECP) of teaching undergraduate students enrolled in theIntroduction to Physics Experiment. We conclude that these two approaches are complementaryto one another. Undergraduate students who were enrolled in the Introduction to Physicslaboratory practical (N = 30) were a case study to elicit their epistemological beliefs aboutphysics laboratory work and their views on social engagement and academic anxiety. Parametricand nonparametric comparisons of central tendency were employed to measure the meandifferences between students using the ECP mode and non

The MotivatedStrategies for Learning Questionnaire developed by Pintrich, Smith, García, and McKeachie in 1991 was usedto measure the key constructs associated with students’ curiosity and engagement.

In this paper, the impact of an internally developed smartphone application called KarmaCollab is evaluated alongside the incorporation of socialized teaching and course gamification. We will look at UC Davis Electrical and Computer Engineering laboratory courses and the impact KarmaCollab had on the online course format. The relationships between course grades, KarmaCollab app engagement, student self-reported sentiment via an end-of-quarter survey, and teaching staff interviews are presented to showcase interesting remote learning insights.

For example, virtual laboratories can allow students toconduct experiments in a simulated environment, while augmented reality simulations can providehands-on experience with complex equipment. Several studies have investigated the effectivenessof these technologies in online engineering courses [5], with positive results in terms ofengagement and deeper understanding of course material [6][7]. Despite the potential benefits ofVR and AR technologies, gathering student perspectives and experiences is essential to developstrategies that meet their unique needs and challenges.This study focuses on understanding student perspectives on online teaching in the Principles ofSurveying course, a hands-on course that teaches students to

) are taken by chemicalengineering undergraduate students typically between junior and senior years with the aim ofreinforcing fundamentals learnt in lecture courses. A distinctive feature of UOLs compared toundergraduate laboratories in other fields, like chemistry, is the use of the so-called pilot-scaleexperimentation[3] which introduces students to new scales of experimentation, mainly orientedtoward the manufacturing industry. From the educational point of view, pilot-scaleexperimentation in UOLs is a unique experience for undergraduate chemical engineeringstudents but it might hamper the ability to teach laboratory courses outside of lab facilities. Thiswas a significant challenge during the global COVID-19 pandemic, which pushed
