classrooms and reaching engineeringprofessionals. While virtual and remote laboratories are not new to engineering education, thereis an increasing need for these alternate methods of teaching due to decreased availability of labtime (from increased undergraduate classes) and the rise of remote higher education programs,such as remote graduate degrees and continuing education [4], [5].In this study, we perform a scoping literature review to explore the tools and labs available toPSET educators. Specifically, we focus on virtual and remote tools that might aid in theeducation of continuing education students and programs with rigid curriculums that do notallow for additional lab time. We were guided by the two following research questions

real-world problems, underlying theories, and hands-on laboratory work. Consequently, it enhances overall learning outcomes and advancesengineering skills. The outcomes of this study, coupled with positive student feedback, suggestthat combining traditional stand-alone labs into project-based laboratories could represent amore effective, efficient, and sustainable pedagogical approach for engineering laboratorycourses. This study not only provides valuable insights but also proposes a pedagogical designthat can guide future improvements in laboratory teaching. By introducing students to the open-ended lab experience at the junior level, this approach facilitates a seamless transition to moreadvanced project-based laboratories in senior courses

Additionally, it presents findings from a survey studyconducted to evaluate the impact of the guest lecture initiative, involving an average class size of55 undergraduate students in each of the two courses.In Fall and Spring of 2022 and 2023, industry presentations were integrated into MSE 3021 andMSE 4022 materials properties and processing laboratory courses to enhancethe students' understanding of real-world applications and industry practices. Presenters wereinvited from diverse sectors of industry, including metal, ceramic and polymer processing(Applied

Hence, there is a growing recognition of theneed for more engaging teaching strategies and learning environments to inspire and engage abroader range of students in engineering disciplines. Innovative learning technologies, such asdigital game-based learning environments, are integral to addressing this need by inspiring interestthrough intellectual engagement among the young generation of students. Moreover, engineeringundergraduate students must graduate from their programs with technical knowledge, criticalthinking, and problem-solving skills to succeed in today’s rapidly advancing and highlycompetitive STEM fields.
