features. While data has revealed that 33 percent students have mentionedexperiencing distractions while learning using remote labs; there is limited evidence on howthese distractions impact equity in the classroom. Figure 9: Percentage of students’ feeling distracted.It is essential to explore whether these distractions affect certain student groups more than othersand whether they contribute to inequalities in academic performance. To gain a deeperunderstanding of this issue, we plan to design a new survey that focuses explicitly ondistractions' impact on classroom equity. This survey will inform by data collected from focusgroups, which will provide valuable insights into the specifics of distractions that students

well as career and laboratoryinterests warrants future study. We aim to do this in collaboration with institutions with astudent population that better matches the diversity of the country. Additionally, in futurework, we plan to include an additional post-module demographic survey question: “Do youidentify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community? (Identities may include lesbian, gay,bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, or other gender or sexuality identities notexplicitly named)”. The addition of this question would facilitate investigation of the impact oftoy adaptation on engineering on LGBTQIA+ students, which is important given thatLGBTQIA+ students face greater marginalization, devaluation, and health and wellness

Figure 1, blended learning environments arecharacterized by a thoughtful combination of in-person andonline learning activities, allowing for a seamless integrationof technology into the learning process. This intentionaldesign includes the development of learning materials,instructional strategies, and assessments that align with boththe face-to-face and online components. In contrast,emergency remote teaching, as experienced during theCOVID-19 pandemic, differs from carefully planned blendedlearning environments because it often involves a reactiveresponse to unforeseen circumstances, leading to a temporaryreliance on online tools and platforms without thecomprehensive planning and instructional design associated Figure 1

outcomes of the instructional design phase are clear learning objectives, clear ways toassess students' learning, and possible pedagogical approaches. Regarding the latter, we mustemphasize that virtual labs can be adopted with any pedagogical approach, includingdemonstrations, simulations, project- and problem-based learning, and inquiry-based learning.When you know in advance which approach you will use, a more tailored virtual lab can bedeveloped.2.2 Virtual Lab Design DocumentLike a game design document [31], a virtual lab design document is a comprehensive plan fordeveloping a virtual lab. It outlines the virtual lab's objectives, goals, and learning outcomes,as well as the instructional strategies and pedagogical approaches to be used. The

about what is being pitched through various methods includingdescribing a pain point, telling a story, justifying the scope of the problem or need, anddiscussing the urgency of implementation and plan in which to address the need. In addition to alecture that engaged students through active listening and participation (e.g., raising hands toagree with certain statements, answering brief questions, etc.), students also completed anactivity in which they practiced writing a value statement that could be used within an effectivepitch. Finally, after learning a few tips to communicate their pitch both verbally and visually,students were given time to begin formulating their own pitch for the assignment with theirproject team.In the BIOE 306

project so far, and the plan for the next week. Reportsare sent to all faculty mentors at least 1 hour before the meeting. At the meeting, one representativeof each project gives a short verbal report addressing problems, breakthroughs, and the state of theproject. The faculty found this format to be successful because students get to know all the programfaculty since they are all engaged with all program projects. In addition, the same format is adheredto in the Senior Design Project course. Furthermore, all student participants are required to presentposters and PowerPoint presentations at university-wide STEM research symposia that areorganized every semester.Project History The eVTOL UAV project theme started in 2014 when a student

workingthrough difficult obstacles. Students were handed a role card with the description of theresponsibilities for each role and given 5 minutes to plan amongst themselves. Students were thenallowed to enter the escape room before the 55-minute timer began counting down (Figure 1).The puzzles were organized into multiple concurrent pathways to provide students with theoptions for exploration, collaboration, and to prevent potential bottlenecks at more challengingpuzzles. Successful completion of each of four pathways will provide students with one of fourdigits to a bottle labeled as “The Cure”. Successful escape occurs when all four numbers areentered in the right sequence before the timer runs out.Figure 1: (Left) Two students attempting to solve a

common thread from UDL, EM, and HCD is collaboratively identifying solutions to meet theneeds of many users. As such, methods from all three frameworks were applied throughout thisproject to identify potential improvements to the bioinstrumentation lab.Background on Participatory Action ResearchOne common application of participatory action research (PAR) is developing knowledge andidentifying opportunities for quality improvement. The PAR approach combines participants andexperts in the research of social practices [12]. Generally, PAR includes cycles of reflection,planning, action, and observation. In education, PAR can be employed by instructors who wishto improve their teaching or courses by gathering evidence of teaching effectiveness

’ educational progress. Qualitative data confirmed that RLs are auseful tool for learning and promoting equitable access, but the internet can trigger digitalinequality that may impede equity among certain demographics.In response to the issue of equitable access, the RELIA Lab was created, in line with the coregoals of Engineering Instructional Laboratories. A Lite version of the lab is also underdevelopment to address digital inequalities and ensure access for students using mobile deviceslike cell phones or tablets. To gain a deeper understanding of digital inequality among students,we plan to conduct additional interviews and focus groups. Exploring the situation of otherminority groups will provide valuable insights and reveal new information

create an initial mechanism to exploremethods to actuate. In this rapid prototyping phase, students should be encouraged to use easy-to-manipulate (e.g., cardboard, rubber bands) materials to develop multiple iterations of initial McKibbenmuscle mechanisms. Students should be encouraged to develop a design that addresses one of the threegame challenges using a McKibben muscle. Another option is to assign students to produce a simplemechanism to complete a specified task that will sufficiently develop the student's understanding of themuscle actuation. Subsequently, students will be able to brainstorm various ways to address the remainingchallenges not yet designed. Students should be given time to then sketch and plan for their
