Both ofthe first two labs include a small group project that challenges students teams creativity to design,execute, and communicate their own experiments. For the final course, Mechanical EngineeringLab, students work in teams throughout the semester to design, execute, and write a full report onmore complex experiments.The new experiential lab sequence began in Spring 2019 with the first offering of the MechanicsLab.

Therefore, in Fall 2019, we initiated the SoTLresearch project on the implementation of the AAE 20401 VLs. Since we wanted to pursue theexcellence in VLs by creating the innovative virtualized lab of the existing hands-on labs, weused the Backward Course Design Model to analyze and characterize the course context, content,assessment, and pedagogy of the course so that we can integrate VLs into the existing labcoursework smoothly.

Codes andstandards were developed solely for that purpose.The most straight-forward approach is to require students to separately describe theglobal, cultural, social, environmental and economic considerations as a graded part oftheir design submission.
