This paper provides a detailed discussion of the virtual laboratory modules added to‘Nondestructive Evaluation of Flaws’. In addition, we report how the changes impacted thestudent learning in Fall 2020 compared to Fall 2019, when the delivery was strictly lecture-based. Finally, we discuss ‘lessons learned’ and modifications planned for the next offerings ofthis class. Our overall assessment results indicate a positive impact of the virtual laboratories on

215 students consented to participate inthe study across two years of data collection. We collected data in two iterations of two coursesthat made specific changes from in-person laboratory experiments to online experimentationthrough simulations.The first course was a one-credit course that serves as an introduction to chemical engineeringand contained primarily students in their first year of college. The first-year students worked ingroups. In 2019, 71 students in 19 groups provided consent and in 2020, 51 students in 13 groupsprovided consent.The second course was a three-credit laboratory course (the first of a four-course laboratorysequence) focused on thermodynamics. This course contained junior chemical engineers whoworked in groups
accreditation in ChinaAbstract:This paper reports the redesign of a junior level engineering experimentation courseto promote students’ problem solving and technical communication skills. The redesign wascarried out to support the accreditation of an engineering program in a technical institution inChina.Since China became an official member of the Washington Accord in 2016, engineeringprograms in Chinese universities and colleges have attempted to adopt outcome-basededucation. Between 2018 and 2019, the authors redesigned an experimentation course thathad been offered for 14 years at the authors’ home institution. The newly designed curriculumwas implemented for the first time in the fall semester of 2019.Following the guiding principle of letting
