The students were required to read andcomprehend the proposed physical model and experiment procedure outlined in the originalpaper. They then had to adapt it to the available equipment in our university laboratory. Oncethe teams had collected data, they were to analyze and compare it with the physical modelingof the observed phenomenon. Finally, they were to create a self-explanatory videopresentation, limited to 10 minutes, where the student teams explained the physicalphenomenon, the modeling, the experiment conducted, and the analysis and conclusionsdrawn.

Hardware-Based Dynamic Systems Course for a Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate ProgramAbstractMany mechanical engineering undergraduate laboratory courses in dynamic systems and controlsare primarily software-based, with laboratory assignments involving computer simulationmodeling. While such simulation assignments may appeal to traditional mechanical engineeringundergraduate students, especially male students, laboratory exercises that are hardware-basedmay appeal to a wider variety of students. In particular, the addition of physical experimentationshould have an impact on male / female diversity, as there is some scientific evidence that femaleundergraduate students prefer kinesthetic learning to males, which involves moving the body

Notably, leveraging strategies such as game-centered learning, personalized learning,and virtual prototyping can effectively promote these outcomes. Of particular significance is theobservation that digital twins can diversify the range of laboratory options within engineeringclasses without entailing additional equipment costs. Consequently, this expansion of resourcesmitigates barriers for students, providing them with

Thus, empathy is not onlyeasily integrated in BME ethics education but can be considered a critical skill for BME students learningto make ethical decisions in the field.Critical reflection is an instructional method that may facilitate deep student learning and empathy withinBME ethics education. Hess, et al. [10], sought to understand how ethics education within a first-yearbiomedical laboratory course impacted the students’ empathy and ethical becoming. This work generatedinstructional activities to embed empathy through ethics education in a biomedical laboratory course.Empathy was operationalized with the dimensions of empathy (Affective/Cognitive and Self-Oriented/Other
