as completely unrelated activities. In the last decade, there hasbeen an increased use of modeling, simulation, and virtual laboratories in engineering programsbecause they can bring “laboratories” to classrooms. The effectiveness of virtual laboratories inengineering undergraduate teaching and learning is well-documented7,20,25,26. Students see how atheory taught in a classroom can be applied to a virtual laboratory right after the introduction ofthe theory during the same class. The connection between theories and practical applications aremade immediately instead of a few days later in the laboratory class. Simulation tools also allowstudents to familiarize themselves with test setups, test procedures, and expected test resultsbefore

It is worth mentioning that our students have shown greatinterest in this virtual lab design which was assigned as a final project in the Javaprogramming course. A well designed final project with a graphic user interface willmotivate students to learn and better understand Java. The Java teaching methodologywas published in the ASEE 2008 Annual Conference and Exposition14. Usually, virtuallabs can be used to train students in the use of equipment prior to hands-on experiences.Resistor Color Code – A Virtual Laboratory Developed with FlashFlash is a multimedia platform created by Macromedia and released in 1996.

Our MET students arerequired to take several senior level classes such as Fluid Power, Heating, Ventilation and AirConditioning (HVAC), Robotics, and Mechanical Vibration. We started teaching Vibrationformally in the fall of 2006 and currently this course does not have a formal laboratory. We maynot be able to set up such a laboratory in the near future because of the budget cuts we are facingat the departmental and university levels. Therefore, the author decided to include two vibrationrelated hands-on activities, the Helmholtz resonator project and an industrial visit. The studentteams are required to design, build and test Helmholtz resonators, and write a formal report.They are also required to visit
