With lockdowns and social distancing measures in place, schools,colleges, and universities transitioned abruptly from in-person instruction to online and distancelearning [1], [2], [3]. This shift was particularly challenging for fields such as STEM (science,technology, engineering, and mathematics) which rely heavily on hands-on experiences such aslaboratory experiments, collaborative projects, and practical applications to help studentsdevelop knowledge [4].

[17]. These are in stark contrast to the vast majority ofproblems that engineering students solve which are usually focused on a relatively narrow rangeof technology (e.g., statics or thermodynamics), have only one correct answer, and typically onlyone method to get that answer. However, ill-structured problems are some of the most importantthat students will solve because they are much more similar to the types of problems they willface after graduation. Those problems typically do not have an answer in the back of the bookwhich is one of the reasons why engineers are well-compensated because they must apply whatthey have learned to new and more complex problems than they studied in school. These ill-structured problems can be unnerving to

Electrical Engineering. When James Clerk Maxwell first published “A Dynamical Theoryof the Electromagnetic Field” in 1865, physicists found it difficult to grasp because the theoreticalframework seemed complicated. Mathematicians also found Maxwell’s work hard to understandbecause the equations were described in physical terms. Students nowadays still encounterdifficulty grasping the principles pertaining to electromagnetism due to a lack of intuitivefamiliarity with the phenomena. However, developing this intuition is limited by the 2D nature oftraditional display technologies, which cannot truly convey the three-dimensional (3D) nature ofE&M concepts.

Planas-Llado et al.studied the interaction between peer feedback on teamwork and final grades [24]. They foundthat the best-functioning teams tended to rate all the team members equally, which validates themethods described in this work. They found that students who viewed their efforts as positiveand effective rated their team members similarly. Other researchers found that discussing bestpractices for teamwork with students in detail led to better team outcomes [25]. They also foundthat
