For classes that traditionally do not includeexperiments, incorporating virtual experiments results in learning gains over equivalent coursesthat do not include experiments.17 For classes that include laboratory portions, virtual labs orsimulations can replace actual labs.18 In some studies, students using virtual simulationsoutperform those who completed an actual lab.19Simulations provide an opportunity to expand the reach of teaching, through engaging differentlearning styles. Diversifying course delivery methods can address a greater number of learningstyles, including those typically neglected by traditional lectures.20 In one study, thermodynamicsstudents

The first-year course was implemented for the first time in the fall 2015semester with an enrollment of approximately 500 engineering students. Student learning and motivationin the course were assessed using qualitative and quantitative survey questions.

theirfuture courses.IntroductionProject-based learning (PBL) is a dynamic method to inspire students to obtain a deeperunderstanding of the subjects, apply and integrate knowledge they are studying. Through PBL,students build a broader base of knowledge and skills to innovative solutions [1]. It places a lot ofweight on students’ involvement during their study. The approach is usually used in junior orsenior design courses. Undergraduate students sometimes get a sense of boredom with theory inlower level course classrooms. PBL functions to reduce a sense of boredom and lack of purposeor relevance for students. It teaches students to explore and solve real-world problems andencourages students’ desire to learn.

producedmicrocontrollers such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi that provide robust capabilities for sensing,control and communication. These tools are useful for both teaching and research in fieldsoutside of ECE, but require the traditional understanding of basic electrical circuits andprogramming methodology in order to be effective. This dilemma led to development of a coursefor non-engineers to allow such technologies to be used effectively. Students participated from adiverse array of fields, including agriculture, animal science, biology, finance, fine arts, physicsand statistics. The pedagogical approach used was a combination of traditional short lectures,hands-on small lab projects performed in two-person student teams, and a team-selected specialproject
