the experimental procedures are neglected.This approach is appropriate in most science-based courses and usually results in equivalentlearning gains compared to traditional hands-on labs. However, such an approach mighthinder the development of essential skills associated with labs in engineering education.Among these skills, one might cite communication and collaboration, safety, designingexperiments, and learning from failure. Furthermore, a common critique regarding virtual labsrefers to the use of idealized data that usually does not reflect the uncertainties and nuances ofthe real world [10]. Also, these labs generally lack the sense of reality necessary to immersestudents in more authentic experiences.The use of virtual labs in

activity and a virtual simulation to study light reflection. They measured learningoutcomes using a questionnaire focused on basic concepts of light reflection using trigonometryand observed similar learning outcomes in learners from both laboratory types. Makransky, et al.[9] also reported that virtual simulations (as a substitute for physical demonstrations) wereeffective in teaching key laboratory skills. These studies reveal the adoption of onlinelaboratories and their impact on a variety of learning objectives.Prior Work and related reviews In an earlier related study, Ma and Nickerson [10] conducted a comparative review of differentforms of laboratories, where they observed an emphasis on; conceptual understanding, social,professional

By focusing on only part of the full-length report, the grading burden is also reduced. Direct and indirect assessments of students’ technical writing skills were carried out inthree semesters of the implementation of the ‘scaffold peer review’ approach in a junior levellaboratory course. Results of the assessments show significant improvement of the technicalwriting skills of students. Students’ reflection on about this approach and their perception abouttechnical writing in general also confirmed the positive impact of this approach. Although theimplementation is within the Engineering Physics program

The comments were paraphrased below. • Comments reflecting safety incidents that were not reported to EH&S: o Students left a soldering iron on and unattended for an extended period. o Students were disassembling a large steel structure which was not properly supported

Willing participants will complete a semi-structured interview via zoomas well as give the researchers the permission to analyze their course project reports. The semi-structured interview will guide respondents to reflect on their learning experience in EPL (forexample, what aspects of this class contributed most to your learning). It will seek their input onremote delivery of EPL. Finally, it will gather their self-assessment of their skill development incircuit design, AutoCAD circuit layout design, 2D electronic printing, and system assemblingand testing.Students’ course project reports will be rated.

Global aviation is suffering pilot shortage, and by 2032, it is expectedthat international aviation will be 80,000 pilots short [1, 2]. Hence, there is an immediate need toidentify ways to expedite pilot training. Researchers have found that gaming positively impactscognition and hand-eye coordination

Kolb’s four stages of learning in the experiential learningcycle can be seen in the activities described: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstractconceptualization and active experimentation [19]. Students directly experiencing the effects of a“broken” ventilator, reflecting on what could have been responsible, relating that knowledge toprevious iterations and learnings of physiology and finally trying a new approach. The improvedaccess to interior device hardware and coding aided in the experience and activeexperimentation. Such experimentation experiences can be limited by fragile expensive parts,proprietary coding and design legally or mechanically frustrating repeated opening.More Advanced Project

A 30% success rate suggests that the escape room activity provided achallenge for the students at an appropriate difficulty. This is also comparable to commercialescape rooms which have reported a similar success rate of 26% [3].Effect of experience on communication and collaboration: Students were asked to reflect and rate the effectiveness of their teamwork andcommunication. The responses in the survey were divided by students who reported succeedingin the escape

Overall, theexperiments conducted were a success in allowing the students to achieve the ABET outcomesduring the process of the experiments. The students were able to research the engineeringtheories, and applied the theories through multiple variations of the experiment to find thedesired answers for the course.Assessment and Impact: Several aspects of what they have done in this course are reflected intheir Capstone Sr. design projects as well as projects in other courses that involve experimentalset-ups and using LabVIEW code, modeling and so on. Numerous groups use data acquisitionset-ups to capture signals to analyze their data. This course also helps them

$435.71imately half the cost of the overall system. Because machining work was done by students, thisis not included in the cost, but the cost to prepare the tooling and perform that machining workwould also likely represent a significant portion of the overall budget. Another factor to consideris that, sourcing metals from a local rather than online supplier can result in a lower cost. Localsuppliers were used where possible, but online sources are used for the table provided in order tobe more transparent, but still provide an approximate cost. Larger quantities may need to be or-dered, but cost was scaled so the price listed reflects the price for only the items needed to build asingle testing machine. For example, the price of the plywood listed is

university if I need it.”In the current reflection, students highlighted the financial challenges associated with internetaccess and having devices connected to the internet. One student suggested that providing freeinternet access or offering the ability to borrow or rent a university computer could ensure equalaccess for all. Another student mentioned that paying for internet services can be prohibitivelyexpensive, especially for those who do not live close to campus due to financial constraints.Therefore, remote lab developers should prioritize creating tools that are less dependent onresources that may be inaccessible to some students. This would help alleviate the digitalinequality barrier and promote more equitable access to remote lab

The instructor shares the broader applications of FDM, and students share their main takeaways from the lab. • Activity: Students bring 5 – 7 3D printed samples of their redesigns (Figure 4), give a short presentation on their redesign, and determine the force and location of

In workingmode, 576 points fill the field of view of the iPhone camera at roughly 60 º by 48º [12], and lightpulses, reflected off objects in the environment, are received by a single-photon avalanche diode(SPAD) that functions as the camera or receiver. The depth map that is ultimately available toapp developers is processed within the phone’s architecture based on a combination of inputsfrom the LiDAR sensor as well as the phone’s camera, accelerometer, gyro, and magnetometer.The LiDAR sensor improves the accuracy of depth sensing while the camera allows for greaterdensity. The technology represents a significant leap in mobile sensing and more details areavailable for the interested reader [12

that this phenomenon reflected that students involved in project-based learning activities were more inclined to regard themselves as a part of the engineeringcommunity.The students in Motamedi’s study [19] tended to prefer the flipped classroom because of itsflexibility with their schedules, their ability to watch lectures when they felt motivated tolearn and when they knew that they would be able to stay focused, and their increasedengagement with short video content. A significant disadvantage was their inability to askquestions while learning the material; thus, students would go to class feeling confused andill-prepared. Vidic et al.’s [18] study of flipped classrooms addressed this issue by allowingstudents to post their questions about
