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

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

. Astudy utilized VR technology to simulate a radiotherapy treatment machine for radiotherapystudents. 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. In a cohort of 56 students, more than 70%reported VR videos allowed them more flexibility of pace and understanding of the task while65% of

All three students wereworking in the same lab co-hosted and mentored by the two laboratory Principal Investigators, aswell as undergraduate and graduate students in the lab. In-depth interviews with the three internsand their parents/caregivers were conducted and analyzed to understand parental relationships,mentorship relationships, and components of the home environment in developing STEMidentity and interest. Faculty mentors were also interviewed and provided perspectives on skillsets and confidence coming into the internship and

Implementation: The foundation for this new design course was based on previousimplementations of electrospinning in senior design projects [13, 14], educational modules [15,16, 17], and research courses [18, 19, 20]. However, the novelty of this course was its goal ofcontrolling ambient conditions to improve manufacturing electrospun fibers. Specifically, studentsin teams of 4-5 were tasked to design an electrospinning system that could monitor temperature orhumidity and regulate the appropriate ambient parameter to stay within an ideal range.The course was designed to be a required 2-credit hour course that would be held once a weekduring a standard 3-hour laboratory period with ~20 students (5 teams). The course was led by oneprimary instructor and

Peer-peerenvironments have also resulted in higher quality and more meaningful feedback fromcollaborative team peer reviews as compared to individual peer reviews in design [6], a deeperunderstanding of the design processes [7], and building trust as well as improving outcomeswhen utilizing calibrated peer review in engineering design [8].
