Michigan Tech collaborates withNUCOR Steel to update the currently outdated PLC laboratory with the state of the artequipment with the goal of providing our students with the best training solution possible. TheEET program at Michigan Tech currently offers two PLC courses: EET 3373 Introduction toProgrammable Controllers and EET 4373 Advanced Programmable Controllers. The ECEdepartment offers EE3261 Control Systems and EE 4262 Digital and Non-linear Control. TheEET courses have a significant lab component and stress hands-on use of PLC’s, while ECEcourses have more of a mathematical flavor and also include

Thestudent test body was divided into two groups. A control course section group, where notroubleshooting instruction was given and designated the “As Is” state. The second sectiongroup, “Improved State” was given an extensive troubleshooting methodology as part of theirinitial training. The primary metric, number of failed attempts to meet specification, waschosen as it is easy to measure by student Teaching Assistants (TA) and was also used to assessthe Sigma process capability for each group. The Sigma capability of each group provided afurther measure of the

important. To implement an active distance learning environment requires the coordination and correlation of instructional materials, media, and technology. Correlating real-time lectures with audio and video are one of several very important elements to the success of the distance learning. The outcomes of the distance learning class should be the same or similar to a traditional lecture/laboratory class. There should be little or no difference between an instructor’s face-to-face classroom lectures, except instructional materials are accessible in electronic formats for users to download. Notes, handouts, graphs, photos, demos, circuits, equations, software shall be

the objective of increasing studentretention and overall satisfaction. Since this course is one of the first technical courses thestudents have to take, the latest approach is to incorporate hands-on laboratory experience withthe goal of getting the freshmen accustomed with novel techniques of acquiring data, buildingthe skills to analyze and investigate data using Excel software, writing a laboratory report, usinga Word processor, and comparing their results with computer simulation results using Matlab orSimulink. At the end of the course each student will have the opportunity to improve theirpresentation skills by presenting their findings in front of their peers using PowerPoint.

The knowledge gap also often results in the repetition of topics and prolongedlab sessions, as well as more serious issues such as the mishandling of equipment.STEM instruction typically is based on verbal, deductive, reflective, and sequential learningmethods. However, studies show that students in science and engineering programs tend to dowell with visual, inductive, active, and global learning methods. With this information in mind,we developed custom pre-lab videos to address the knowledge gap. The pre-lab videosdemonstrate basic usage and implementation of laboratory equipment, software tools

engineering education argue that educational programs focus too muchon the transmittal of information through static lecture-discussion formats and routine use ofoutdated laboratory exercises. On the other hand, active learning, learning that involves hands-onexperience, significantly improves student comprehension and proficiency. It is clear thatunderstanding and retention are greatly enhanced when students engage in active learning.While theoretical knowledge remains a fundamental component of any comprehension process,the underpinnings of proficiency development seem to increase best through active learningpractices. What remains less clear is the “gold standard” for pedagogical approaches thatcombine theory and hands-on learning.In this article

The unit consists of a study guide, worksheets, laboratory experiments, handouts ontheory not covered in the book, etc. The study guide is an assignment sheet that is a list oflearning activities to be performed in sequential order. These activities include:  Read particular pages in the textbook.  View videos (that take the place of live lectures)  Ask the instructor for a demonstration or an introduction to the laboratory equipment.  Fill out
