pressure vessel by applying the thin-walled structure theory.In addition to enduring outcomes (Table 2), the labs will educate students on the “important toknow” topics (Table 3). These are specific (i.e., more detailed) topics that students learn whenthey participate in the lab and write a lab reports afterwards.In addition, students confirm lab results with the theoretical results as a part of lab report writeup so that students will be able to understand the theories behind the lab activities and also tounderstand potential errors associated to each activity during the lab.In addition to the contents of Table 3 for specific topics, students must become proficient withthe equipment usage to conduct hands-on experiments all labs.

groups of students work together on a technically focusedvideo. The video transfer the learning they have gained in the course in both the lecture and thelaboratory, and translate that into a short video they create on their tablet computers supplied bythe academic department. All equipment in the laboratory space is available for their use tocreate the video. Example topics of videos are: manifold gauge operation, propeller nick repair,and carburetor icing. The students present their video to their peers during a classroom period.The students are assessed by both the course instructor and other faculty that are not part of thecourse. The assessment of the project is a rubric that includes the major sections of introduction,video content
