students learn participating in thisresearch study. Another student commented: “Working in groups definitely helped our overall research process, as well as meeting every Friday understanding what tasks we went over and completed.”These insights help the faculty members to continue to improve the research process for students.What might appear as a routine meeting might have deeper benefits to research students than thoseintended by the faculty. Also, the students realized the importance of communication in theseweekly meetings, which is a critical skill needed for STEM fields in the 21 st century. The nextquestion and student responses are listed below. 4. What are your plans after graduation? How has this research experience

It is planned that this laboratory continuesevolving, adding extra features such as letting the player go over multiple levels andconfigurable settings for the games, such as layouts, colors, and shapes.In this laboratory activity, we asked the students to develop a video game applying the conceptsof the course. We have found that the redefinition of this laboratory activity includinggamification elements has a positive impact on the student's motivation and provides a betteralignment between

. However, in recent years, many of the manufacturing-related machines haveevolved to be non-hands-on. Consequently, more time is spend planning the process, for instancein CAD/CAM environments. The analysis of data is becoming more important in recent years aswell. Not just since the rise of Industry 4.0 is the number of sensors steadily increasing,generating an ever bigger amount of data. Along with this trend, the learning goals of laboratorycourses shift accordingly – from manual operation of machines towards process planning,observation and data analysis. This enables to use of so-called remote laboratories as part offlipped laboratory concepts, given their shifted focus of achievable learning outcomes [2], [6].Such remote laboratories are

chemical reactions that are taught within the course. The usage of AR/VR tovisualize these difficult concepts and structures is thought to be an effective tool to implementand enhance the learning experience.This exposure and usage are depicted through a hands-on laboratory session within the coursewhich is provided for instructors in the next page. This activity entails a short lesson whichintroduces the concepts of AR/VR to the students with some built-in small discussion points toreflect upon how these technologies can be applied to the real world. Next, the students then getto experience VR through the Merge Headset and lesson plans (e.g., “Make Carbonic acid”). Forthe AR sections, students use the Merge Object Viewer app to project molecules

distributed to 30-45 groups. Each experiment is designed so itrelates to multiple course topics and can be used in corresponding assignments.This paper describes one of these experiments and associated activities and details the materialsneeded, planned group and class logistics, and a broad description of the assignments created anddiscussions planned to relate course content to the experiment. While the experiment itself,measuring viscosity with a Stokes Law viscometer, is well documented, the pedagogicalapproach described in this paper has been designed to address a critical set of student needsrelated to learning and well-being. The effectiveness of this approach will be assessed in myMarch 2023 offering of the course, and preliminary results

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

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

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

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.
