Engineering Education, 2019 INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) LABORATORY AbstractInternet of Things technology is the preferred choice of modern engineers in theindustry. Bringing this technology in the undergraduate education has become acoveted and imperative objective of engineering educators. The paper presents theresults of a project to develop laboratory exercises using Internet of Thing (IoT) in theElectrical and Computer Engineering Technology major. This project, uses anESP8266 NodeMCU v1.0 board for connection to the Internet. It employs Arduinoprogramming for the design of several laboratory exercises. These labs include:Introduction to the IoT technology, Basics of the development board

Laboratory at the West Virginia University Lane Department ofComputer Science and Electrical Engineering, set up one of its four sections offered in an onlinefashion as a “lab in a box.” This approach is a set of hands-on exercises where students design,build, and test circuits at home using an inexpensive all-in-one electronics kit, digital multimeter,and a USB oscilloscope. With this “lab in a box,” the students, at their own convenience, conductseveral multi-week laboratory experiments such as basic amplifier design, LED four channelcolor organs, and frequency response of circuits. Each week, students use online tools such asdiscussion boards and blogs through a web-based course management system, built into thecampus Learning Management System

Differentfrom previous isolated lab experiments, the new project requires students to integrate multipleexperiments to design and build complex integrated circuits to solve a practical problem.Students first designed multiple electronic circuit modules to separately implement temperaturemeasurement, temperature comparison and actuator control and then integrated all electroniccircuit modules as complete electronic diagrams. Second, they used electronic circuit elements inlab to build integrated circuits on breadboards according to the complete electronic diagrams.Further

applications make it mandatory for electrical and computer engineeringstudents to gain basic concepts in the digital domain in addition to the analog domain. This studyaims at integrating MSO features into analog oscilloscopes to teach students both digital andanalogue systems and signal analysis. The proposal will show how the MSOs can be used in theelectrical and computer engineering curriculum through an “Introduction to Microcontrollers”laboratory course. Two labs are introduced to allow the students to analyze and study the digitaldomain of the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) and the Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) protocols.Finally, the labs will teach the student how to analyze machine code and map it into both assemblyinstructions and high

deflection of the member and therefore failure. Thisstructural failure is known as buckling and might happen even if the compressive strength of thematerial is larger than applied compressive force. Euler in 1757 developed a mathematical modelfor maximum buckling capacity of a member. He presented the maximum load that a membercan carry before failure due to buckling as a function of the length, moment of inertia of thecross section, modulus of elasticity of material and the fixity conditions of the member. Mostly,civil engineering students learn about the theory of buckling in the spring of their sophomoreyear in a Statics II course. Static II is combined with a two-hour weekly laboratory session. Inthis laboratory course different modes of failure

Althoughlecture courses of this sort can be strengthened through the incorporation of active or problem-based learning, the addition of short, focused experiments can have a profound effect on studentlearning, motivation, and retention of knowledge. This paper describes the development of asmall, portable beam bending apparatus to highlight concepts of stress and strain in anundergraduate strength of materials course. The experiments are designed to target particularconcepts about which students typically have misconceptions. The apparatus was fabricated andimplemented in a single section of strength of materials, and preliminary data was gathered onstudent
