Engineering Physics and Physics
remains asource of frustration for students of biology and the life sciences. The disconnect between thetopics students learn in introductory physics lecture and laboratory and the changing nature ofthe biological sciences has only grown worse in recent decades. Students do not see therelevance of what they learn in their physics courses to either their ongoing education in biologyor their future careers in the life sciences. Yet, biomedical researchers and medical practitionersare acutely aware of the critical role of physics in the study of living systems from themacroscopic to the cellular scales. The recognition that physics laboratories provide an idealspace to teach modeling, computational tools and modern technology, while training

tools such as CATME[9], which have also been testedin the past for this laboratory; however, through this study, a shorter and faster assessment tool toperform peer evaluation was tested in a laboratory teaching environment which is primarily basedon group reports. The commitment to sign a form describing the individual contributions to thereport seems to foster the individual accountability and assigned efforts. Future efforts shouldfocus on comparing different peer-assessment tools during the same semester to evaluate theefficacy of each tool. Nonetheless, this could create resistance from the students, which couldhinder teaching and learning aspects of the class, and a careful approach must be taken whenmultiple assessments are given in a

graduate studentsenrolled in mathematics and computer science were international students [1]. Moreover, thenumber of international students, both at graduate and undergraduate levels, has been increasingannually since 1950 with few exceptions [2]. Besides contributing to the ongoing research and development work at the universities,adding to the cultural diversity on campuses, and contributing to university’s finances throughtuition and other fees, international graduate students play an important role in the undergraduateeducation at US universities by serving as teaching assistants (TAs), especially in STEMdisciplines [3].

Dr. Blake Everett Johnson received his doctorate in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2012. Dr. Johnson now works as a lecturer and lab manager in the De- partment of Mechanical Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois. While remaining interested and active in the field of experimental fluid mechanics, he has chosen to spend most of his professional energy on improving the teaching of thermo/fluids laboratory courses through the development of en- gaging and intellectually-stimulating laboratory exercises, as well as improving introductory mechanics education and design courses in the MechSE department.Dr. Matthew D.

Computers in Education
onlineeducation offers a variety of resources and focuses primarily on teaching the fundamentaltheories and concepts, one disadvantage is the lack of hands-on experience and direct interaction[1]. Particularly in engineering education, where abstract engineering concepts ideally can bebetter understood by doing the related hands-on activities such as laboratory experiments. Tosolve the issue of the practical training shortage and the lack of hands-on experience with onlineeducation, VR takes the learning experience to a next level in terms of interaction andengagement. VR refers to an artificial world that replicates the real world environment generatedby computers, and that simulates the physical presence of a user in the virtual environment [2].With the

Simulation sickness analysis showed thatthe current VR teaching modules need some adjustments. The analysis of the systems usabilityand user experience of the module were found to be acceptable. In phase III of the research, wewill improve the VR module to make a full self-paced tutorial where the instructor’s role will bemore facilitator than an instructor.References[1] B. Dalgarno, A. G.

In the pre-existing paradigm, teachersintroduce the theory of a new concept prior to running an experiment or discussing contextualapplications of the theory. The physics laboratory objective is solely to verify or support thepresented theory. Teachers then encourage students to extrapolate implementation contextsthrough discussions that follow the lab experiment. The focus of the student lab report is ontheory, procedures, data collection and applying that data to the theoretical equations. Reportconclusions recount how well the experiment matched
