Thus,since the inception of engineering as a field, physical laboratories have been extensively usedas learning environments in undergraduate and graduate programs to prepare students forengineering professional practice [1, 8]. There are three types of engineering laboratories:physical, VR, and remote laboratories. Physical

inclusive, reflective teaching practices on problem solving proficiencyMotivationDevelopment and implementation of inclusive teaching practices is an important educationalmovement [1]. For four years, we worked to implement three inclusive practices: standards-based grading with reflection [2], [3], co-created assessment [3], [4], [5], and peer review [2] ofwritten deliverables in a sophomore-level experimental design laboratory and lecture course.This work focuses on peer review, though it utilizes the former two practices in doing so.Briefly, standards-based grading (SBG) is a formative assessment approach that allows fortracking of objective proficiency throughout the curriculum and allows for just-in-time

earlier study showed a strong positivecorrelation between instructor review and peer review in a biomedical engineering laboratory,suggesting peer review could be an effective form of feedback [1]. Peer review also resulted in theperceived improvement of students’ ability to critique. Additionally, the use of co-created rubricsis an inclusive teaching practice that can improve confidence and self-efficacy. It speeds up futuredetailed feedback, as the students and instructors have a similar understanding about the elementsof the rubric and may enhance self-regulated learning [2]. Finally, standards-based grading shiftsthe primary objective to individual learning and achievement, removes distraction from low-importance errors and reduces the

The results showed an improvement in their understanding of technical skills and theirconfidence in applying them [5]. Another study used VR technology to teach students chemistryconcepts and was successful in improving the performance of students having poor spatial ability[6]. In a previously published study [7], we developed VR-based demonstrations for abiomedical engineering laboratory and assessed their effectiveness using surveys containing freeresponses and 5-point Likert scale-based questions.

Additionally, strong communication skills are highly sought after by employers.Despite these benefits, many traditional engineering courses fail to give students the space toreflect upon and improve their writing. Time constraints and lack of grading incentives alsodissuade students from continuing to engage in the writing process, indicating a need to movebeyond one-off writing assessments [5].
