Testingfor DL students was usually performed with proctored tests at the student site, since ODU madearrangements with local community colleges, libraries, or other institutions that can administertests and provide proctors. However, laboratory classes always raised more issues for distancelearning due to their hands-on component. The labs were often offered separately, for campusand distance learners, and not in hybrid mode. Assessment was conducted and the results werecompared for the two groups with the results showing similar results or even better results for thedistance learners than for the campus group [13].

Also, the difficulty undergraduate students have in making connectionsbetween their theory teachings and their practical exercises, as well as how pertinent these labsessions are to their everyday lives, has led to the conclusion that physics experiments are highlyabstract. This study used low-cost, interactive, code-free, portable technology to improve students’practical experiences and report how these experiments are applied in everyday activities. Thestudy involved 50 STEM students registered for the Introduction to physics laboratory course.According to the students’ feedback and the motivated strategy for learning questionnairesadopted, they were very

. Ultimately, the solution to the lack of dedicated engineering space was simple (butnot easy): construct a new building. However, building a new space on campus requiresinstitutional support and a funding source. The College President and College Advancementoffice began raising funds to design and build an addition to the existing science center. Theseefforts culminated in the construction in 2017 of a joint Engineering and Biomedical SciencesHall, which included a dedicated engineering laboratory, an engineering computation lab, amodern teaching classroom, three faculty offices, and two “project labs” intended to provideworkspace for Engineering and Integrated Science design, research, and capstone projects.However, shortly after construction was

use.Almagambetov and Pavlina [2] compare three methods of teaching laboratories in a digital-logicservice course for first-year students. The methods are wiring cookbook-style labs using off-the-shelf components, VHDL labs with virtual-wiring techniques, and hybrid labs combining the two(Ibid.). The hybrid approach was seen to produce better educational outcomes according to anextensive evaluation. Other educators have chosen a hybrid style as well. For instance, Areibi [3]has students start with breadboards, but after introducing FPGAs, observes that a studentpreference for FPGAs is established after a few labs. Nonetheless, Areibi has found that the useof VHDL in such a course causes confusion and has identified that the primary challenge wasbeing able

With a few exceptions,community college faculty seek external funding to develop new academic programs, improvecurricula and teaching, or implement student-centered professional development programs, oftenin partnerships with four-year institutions. Community college faculty's two main responsibilitiesare teaching and advising students. In this context, mentoring takes shape (Hensel, 2021). Forinstance, mentoring may occur in the classroom, the laboratory, and the office.

], which introducessome active programming teaching methods. Portela employed four approaches to develop theinstructional plan, namely: BYOD, flipped classroom, gamification, and using the skills ofindividual students to solve posed problems. Tewolde presented a method for improving studentmotivation in a microcontroller-based embedded systems course to enhance students’ role inactive learning [10]. The method consists of three tools, namely: laboratory assignments forpractical hands-on activities, “peer teaching” techniques, and self-proposal, which enablesindividual creativity. For some complex and difficult to understand courses such as programmingalgorithms-related subjects, Garcia et al. [11] proposed a method in the form of
