into circuits and communication links. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Measurement of the Effect of Interactive Questions in Lab Manuals on LearningAbstract​ -- This research paper will describe the results of an experiment in which two groups ofstudents in a laboratory class received different web-based lab manuals featuring interactivequestions, the treatment with many more interactive questions than the control. The hypothesiswas that asking students more questions would cause the students to reflect on the task at hand,which would in turn increase learning. This study was motivated by work on experientiallearning, particularly Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle, which suggests that

Instruments previously established by Brewe and colleagues16 for use inintroductory physics laboratories were adapted for use. In brief, students were asked “Who doyou work with on engineering assignments (i.e., homework, projects, etc.)? Please list all.” Ofthe 860 students enrolled in the class, 725 responded to the survey resulting in a response rate of84%. This SNA question was administered as part of larger, pen and paper survey of studentattitudes towards diversity during the final weeks of the semester.Data was manually compiled into an edge list, a paired list describing all the

Engineering course curricula have increasingly incorporatedmodern technology that has made a positive impact by creating more hands on activities andexperiments. Specialized laboratory equipment and setups are being replaced with off the shelfdevices and components. Customized printed circuit boards can be purchased cheaply andfabricated in days instead of weeks. Creating these hands on activities has many timescorresponded with an increased expense that is passed on to the students in the form of a

We became convinced through student testimonials that they needed to feellike, and be “regular” engineering students. Yes, they were admitted through a special programbecause of their potential, but once in the engineering college, students just wanted to be“normal.”To boost both students’ learning and their beliefs that they belong in engineering, in fall 2013 weconverted the traditional preparatory physics course to a hands-on format, implementing weeklyengineering-focused laboratories that focused on data collection, analysis and synthesis
