Thus, theintroduction of this facility will provide invaluable hands-on learning experiences for all STEMstudents.The connection between theory and practice has long been recognized as one of the mostchallenging aspects to teach in engineering education. Hands-on experience in a laboratoryenvironment offers a vital tool to solidify concepts covered in lecture courses. The proposedproject aims to significantly enhance undergraduate instruction related to recent trends anddevelopments in emerging technologies, including alternative energy, drone technology, andbiotechnology.

Ina laboratory setting, the relationship between beacon signal strength (RSSI), distance, and ori-entation was examined to validate a proximity detection metric. A preschool classroom studyfurther tested the ecological validity of the real-time location system by comparing interactionsdetected by the automated system with those recorded by a traditional researcher-led method. Inorder to align the differing sampling methods of IDEAS and the traditional researcher-led method,we developed an algorithm to down-sample the beacon data. The results suggest a partial align-ment between beacon-detected interactions and

good example of this occurred at the University of Tennessee in the late 1990s [3]. At theUniversity of Tennessee [3] the two first-year courses were redesigned in response torecommendations of an industrial advisory board and ABET. The result was a FYE programwhich was deemed the “Engage Program”. The first semester course was a non-calculus-basedapproach that focused on computer programming, graphic skills, and problem solving. Thesecond semester course focused more on calculus-based content with emphasis on statics anddynamics. Basic concepts would be presented in a one-hour lecture and the concepts werereinforced during low-tech, hands-on laboratory exercises. Additionally, students would meetwith graduate teaching assistants in a

However, creatorscite the cost of maintaining a real laboratory and general lack of access to a lab as a reason forsimulating the environment in VR.Best practice: • Identify topics that fall into the DICE framework to justify the use of VR. • Carefully weigh the benefits of teaching in AR, VR, or sticking to traditional methods before making a commitment.Identifying PedagogyA common critique for VR use in education is that pedagogy comes second to the novelty of thetechnology [9, 21]. In teaching, pedagogy should be a priority, no matter the medium. Therefore,it is essential that instructors understand what educational theories align well with VR. The mostcommonly
