inexpensive Hands-On Learning Module (@HOLM™) fluid mechanicslaboratory kits paired with an online undergraduate fluids mechanics course, which can beseamlessly inserted into any ABET-accredited baccalaureate mechanical engineering curriculum.The physical kit is small and inexpensive, enabling it to be shipped to a remote learner who thenassembles each experiment, collects data, and performs analysis at his/her location. Kitexperiments retain all the features, robustness, and rigor of full-scale brick-and-mortarlaboratories.Here, data collected from one laboratory kit beta-tested with junior and senior mechanicalengineering students is used as an example. Analysis of both indirect and direct assessmentsindicates that learning outcomes are achieved to

Engineering in the Fac- ulty of Engineering and Information Technologies at The University of Sydney. Before this he was a Director of the Centre for Real-Time Information Networks (CRIN) - a designated research strength at the University of Technology, Sydney focused on blending embedded systems and telecommunications in addressing real-world problems. He is also the CEO of the not-for-profit organisation The LabShare Institute, and past President of the Global Online Laboratory Consortium. Professor Lowe has published widely during his more than 20 year teaching career, including three textbooks. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Non-Expert Sensor Based Laboratory
