One factor that would beinteresting to study is the impact of the hands-on nature of the experiments relative to asimulation only based experiment. The advantage of doing simulations only is the reduced costand accessibility to the students, but what is lost is the connection to a physical system.

For the aquaculture module, students built,tested, and analyzed their own aerator or used 3D modeling to develop a new impeller for anexisting pump to use in water circulation.
