This leads to many engineering educators to choose lecture capture—streamed and/or recorded— as a way to serve distance education students. However, this approach fails to make use of the capabilities of quality online

According to Schon 3, the main features of reflection in action are learning by doing,coaching rather than teaching, and creating a dialogue between coach and student. Effectiveforms of learning by doing in real laboratories have been implemented in Engineering Education,especially for capstone courses 4. Alternatively, a methodology of building a simulated scenario,in which the student can learn-by-doing while interacting with fictitious characters (some ofwhom provide coaching), has been proposed by Schank 5 as an effective form of
