computer, or with an immersive virtual reality (VR) headset. Videoswere published and distributed such that the instructional videos could easily be incorporatedinto a curriculum. Results of the project will be assessed for both immersiveness as well aspedagogical value.Keywords: Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, 360o Video, Teaching with InnovativeTechnologyIntroductionMany engineering programs incorporate hands-on experience in manufacturing methods andfabrication. The experience levels of students prior to the training can vary widely, and it’s notunusual for some students to have no familiarity with the equipment, let alone its operation.Integrating a virtual, immersive, experience as the first step of the training process may serve tooffset

3 Iowa State University 4 University of San FranciscoAbstractThis work presents the results of an assessment instrument designed to assess the progressivelearning of ethics in the engineering curriculum at different stages known as acclimation,competency, and proficiency, and to determine the relation of the development stages with threecomponents that contribute to learning: interest, knowledge and strategic processing. Thequestions in the instrument were defined following the Model of Domain Learning (MDL) tocapture the level of ethics skill development. The questionnaire was administered to engineeringstudents of increasing class standing (i.e., freshmen to senior). The results show that the

oftenregarded as facts to be memorized and mastered through repetition. At the same time, judgment-forming skills are needed by students to compel them to think about examples and problems in awider context.Facts and memorizationThere are many facts in physics for an engineering student to remember. The memorization ofhow free body diagrams are constructed to how integrals are to be implemented in problemsconcerning magnetism is already quite a challenge, but students need also to practice usingjudgment when they are presented with new examples and situations that require the linking ofknown facts with information given in a problem at the end of a chapter or a test. The laws ofconservation and related formulas are easier for students to remember when

physicists, college physics professors andhigh school physics teachers with multiple missions which include enhancing science andengineering knowledge through hands-on experience among high school students. Besidesbuilding cosmic ray detectors, we instituted a related activity in the studying of cosmic ray and/orsolar proton induced muon production. This activity concerns whether the muon flux fluctuationhas a relationship to solar eruption event effects. Mathematical skills at the pre-calculus level inthe high school curriculum was found to be sufficient to perform the necessary analyses. Theanalysis of a magnetic cloud event detected by the ACE spacecraft on April 14-15, 2013 waspresented as an example. Together with the fast time resolution with
