For example, as Deniz et al. [18] noted, usingdigital twins allows students to interact with lab-based experiments remotely, providing an experience thatclosely mirrors in-person learning. Johra et al. [19] explored how digital twins of building physicsexperimental setups are used for effective e-learning, allowing students to simulate complex experimentsinvolving heat transfer, energy consumption, and airflow in buildings. This remote learning approachenhances students' engagement and understanding of complex systems, as they can actively interact withthe digital

The class guidesstudents through a series of laboratory exercises and design experiences to develop theirconfidence and ability in the domains of soldering, breadboard prototyping, circuit fundamentals,and microcontrollers. This paper evaluates the impact 18-095 has had over three semesters (Fall2023, Spring 2024, Fall 2024), analyzing the development of student self-efficacy, identity, andsense of belonging, as measured across three surveys each semester (n = 71).

However, theory is alsoemphasized in order to allow students to adjust to whatever tools a company or laboratory maydemand. Furthermore, the class emphasizes the theory behind “rules of thumb” in order to allowstudents to make educated decisions in the design process.
