IntroductionStudent engagement is an important concept in research on postsecondary student experience.Student engagement means “the quality of effort students themselves devote to educationallypurposeful activities that contribute directly to desired outcomes” [1] (p. 555). Within theengineering education communities, student engagement is a presumably desired goal to achievein engineering courses and other academic activities. This is evident in the papers published inthe proceedings of the American Society for Engineering Education annual conferences. Oursearch in the PEER repository in January 2024 showed

This research contributes toinnovative engineering education approaches, emphasizing the importance of virtual labs inimparting critical skills. I. IntroductionThe goal of this study is to investigate the potential advantages of integrating virtual labs intomechanical vibration courses, with a specific focus on rotor balancing. Traditional approaches toteaching mechanical vibrations often face limitations in providing hands-on experiences due topractical constraints and safety concerns. Therefore, this research aims to assess the efficacy of avirtual lab, the Virtual Rotor Kit (VRK) [1], in enhancing students' understanding and

Early attempts at online laboratories used the internet toconnect a laboratory setup at one location with a student user at another [1].

Does increased engagement result in higher performance on ethics assessments? 3. Is a blended approach of independent microlearning and an in-class team case study effective in bridging the lower order of memorizing ethical terms to applying ethical principles to a dilemma?The question on engagement was evaluated through an end of semester Likert style survey, andthe impact of the learning approach was assessed by comparing student participation in themicrolearning modules to performance in an end of semester ethics quiz.

Introduction There is a growing importance of computers within the modern age. With more “work fromhome” opportunities being created, societies’ reliance on computer interaction continues toadvance. While this is not a problem in itself, there is an alienated sector of society that is unableto take advantage of these opportunities. A significant portion of the population struggles withimpairments [1, 2]. With technology being such a driving force in society, more opportunities arecreated for those who are constrained and unable to leave home as easily. As opportunities grow,those with impairments, like amputees

college studentsdescribe experiencing moderate to high stress levels [1], [2]. As students are busy and feelingoverwhelmed, they have limited structured opportunities for reflecting on and developing theirpurpose and professional identities. In STEM environments, students may find that they do notfit into a predominant narrative of just “being good at math” and thus lack an adequatejustification for entering an engineering field. Similarly, they may find that they areunderrepresented demographically, underresourced compared to some peers, or unsure how theybelong in general, even if they are interested in their field of study. These students may find itdifficult to feel comfortable taking advantage of opportunities available to them on campus

Thedevelopment, preparation, and processing of the files are completely done digitally. For instance,the three-dimensional modeling using computer-aided design (CAD) software, slicing the object,generating the tool path, and processing parameter selections, are all performed digitally.

These challenges have been addressed byseveral authors with different approaches and success.

In fact, dating back to 2014, it was stated that “increasingreliance on cell-phones among young adults and college students may signal the evolution of cell-phone use from a habit to an addiction” [1]. Whether it is texting each other, checking on socialprofiles, or just playing games, the majority of students observed in the author’s classes activelyuse a cell phone during class, often placing it on the desk.
