majors, and the development of spatial reasoning abilities for engineering students. Bell has worked at Michigan State University since 1995. His work focused on the development of K-12 teacher abilities to use technology for teaching and learning. His recent research has focused on distance learning and collaboration through telepresence. One key aspect of this work is the study of embodied content for learning and collaboration. Embodied content includes collaborative textual environments as well as augmented/mixed reality. Other research includes idea-centered teaching and learning.Mr. Timothy J. Hinds, Michigan State University TIMOTHY J. HINDS is the Academic Director of the Michigan State University College of

Thisincludes not only higher grades in courses, but also greater “mastery of higher- versus lower-levelcognitive skills” [6].The present work describes the application of active learning of holistic engineering practice in asophomore-level thermodynamics course sequence.

education. A virtual field-trip is a way of providing userswith some knowledge and virtual experience of a facility without requiring them to physicallyvisit the location. Virtual labs can provide remote-access to various disciplines of Science,Technology, and Engineering (STE) disciplines and are a cost-efficient way for schools anduniversities to organize high-quality laboratory work. Due to constrictions on time andgeographical distances, virtual-labs can be used to share costly equipment and resources, whichare otherwise available to a limited number of users.

In this study, students were giventhe option to use LectureTools, an interactive suite of tools designed specifically for largerclasses. The availability of these tools dramatically changed the mechanics of the course as over90% of students attending lecture voluntarily brought their laptops to class.

Theiterative process of DBR makes this research method similar to the classical engineering cycle inthat it begins with a challenge or question within an educational context, researchers develop ahypothesis, then design and test an intervention or product [13], [14]. That intervention is thenevaluated within the educational experience and further refined through subsequent iterations(Figure 2).Implementation will occur in undergraduate fluids engineering courses at Utah State Universityand the University of Colorado, Boulder and in STEM outreach events for diverse high schoolstudent at the Undersea Technology Apprentice Program (UTAP) hosted by

IntroductionInstructional methods have evolved over the ages from traditional writing on blackboard to theuse of cellulose transparencies and overhead projectors to notebook computers and dataprojectors. The latest trend in instructional technology is the use of Tablet PCs and iPods in theclassroom. In recent years, Tablet PCs are making its headway into classroom instruction atevery level, from K-12 to colleges, as well as in business meetings of corporate America. Infact, Georgia Tech has recently announced that all engineering students must use a Tablet PC

Secondly, and this partly derives from the above, virtuallaboratories allow students to learn from failures that may arise without causing any realdamage to systems. Learning from failure is one of the objectives for engineering educationas defined by ABET 3 .
