controlled in similar fashion. This provides alearning advantage over simply watching a simulation because students are required to do theexperiment themselves using physical movements similar to those used in the real world. As aresult, they learn the procedure by performing it, and will have better recollection of SEMimaging procedures when required to use a real SEM later on.In order to gauge the efficiency of the VR laboratory in teaching students correct lab procedures,a group of 12 students was introduced to the VR lab and asked to complete an experiment. The12 students were selected from UVU's computer science, computer engineering, electricalengineering, and animation and game development departments to ensure they had decentexperience in

touches upon the existing attempts at buildingsuch a near-world lab for academic research and teaching purposes and their challenges. TheSCADA laboratory we designed and the research findings we present will be either used todevelop new courses or supplement the existing courses in the undergraduate and graduatecurriculum with fairly enough number of hands-on activities. Moreover, our paper highlights thechallenges, limitations and the methodologies in the project to achieve these goals. Thecross-disciplinary design of the lab allows students from various programs with specific goals touse the lab for their studies.Related WorkThe SCADA systems have been target of attacks particularly in the last two decades with theadvancements in technology.
