laboratory curriculum should be a balance of expository and inquiry instruction and,if possible, an introduction to independent research techniques (Svinicki and McKeachie, 2014;Tomasik, et al. 2013; Galloway, et al., 2016). Fourth, the laboratory program must be feasiblewithin available resources, which included time, costs, instrumentation, physical facilities, andsupport personnel (Larsen, et al. 2013). Fifth, we developed the laboratory curriculum topromote a more complex affective learning environment. Galloway et al. showed that accessingfeelings beyond interest about the laboratory experience encourages students to make aconscious choice to more actively participate in the laboratory learning environment (2016).2.

be particularlydifficult for students to write to an external audience. To aid in this effort, WID increasinglyinvolves collaboration between engineering faculty and composition faculty [8].Writing across the curriculum (WAC) supports conceptual learningWriting across the curriculum (WAC)—also described as writing-to-learn—refers to anintegrative approach of emphasizing written communication as a form a learning across theentire curriculum [16]. In this approach, the emphasis is not on discipline-specific styles ofwriting or the mechanics of writing, but rather, to help students make sense of and organizedisciplinary content, generally in ways that connect to students' experiences and enable them toreceive feedback on their understanding [17

learning activities in a course.In the case of introductory physics labs, goals range from reinforcing content, learning aboutmeasurement and uncertainty, practicing communication skills, developing teamwork skills, and,more broadly, learning that physics is an experimental science. It is unrealistic to hit all thosegoals. A practical benefit SBG for educators is that SBG made assessment easy. Academicprograms in higher education are constantly under scrutiny of various organizations, such as theHigher Learning Commission (HLC) and Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET). Because assessments and evidence collection are embedded in the day-to-day and lab-to-lab work, it is easier to integrate SBG into course level assessment

extracurricular learning opportunities and hands-on supplements to traditional courseinstruction. The following paper describes the integration of a Formula SAE (FSAE) teamproject into a junior-level mechanical engineering experimentation course; it represents one ofnine projects in this course.The first half of the course is divided into modules that, for all students, progressively address: 1)the measurement chain and laboratory best practices using pre-existing experiments, 2) sensordesign, selection, and calibration, 3) statistical data analysis and uncertainty limits, and 4)technical communication skills. The second half tasks student teams to propose, design, build,and carry out an original experiment to an engineering problem they perceive can

[24]. If guidedIBL is used throughout the curriculum, students will be more comfortable with the process andneed less support. For example, the first author has added scaled-back elements of guided IBL toa preceding laboratory course to help the students to get comfortable with the process used in thecourse in this study: students identified the parameters controlled for a series of trials and thedata that needed to be collected to answer an authentic question, but the instructor provided thetesting procedure.We also found it helpful to design a class session during which students develop their methods,so that they have time to think through the authentic problem with their teams, but also for wholeclass discussions to ensure that everyone is

Ashealthcare comprises an increasingly large (∼20%) share of the economy, opportunities fosteredby low-cost, pervasive imaging for the IoMT and other biomedical applications, along withenvironmental monitoring, the technology and should be more prominent in the undergraduateengineering curriculum, either integrated into current course laboratories, such as fluidmechanics
