Therefore, we are not able todivulge many details of what topics and active learning techniques will be used at this time.However, we have chosen reflective writing activities to help students develop theirmetacognitive skills. Ryan et al. (Ryan, 2013) define reflection as “(1) making sense ofexperience in relation to self, others and contextual conditions; and importantly, (2) reimaginingand/or planning future experience for personal and social benefit.” One of the features of STEMexperts is that they reflect on their cognitive decisions and make real-time adjustments (Felder,2016). While expertise takes years to acquire

Recentinnovations in immersive technologies, particularly 360-degree video, offer a promising solutionby providing realistic yet controlled training environments [3].In this paper, we propose that 360-degree video can serve as a stepping stone toward fullyimmersive Virtual Reality (VR) training modules, reducing the barrier to adoption fororganizations with limited budgets, technical expertise, or aircraft availability.This study has two primary aims. The first aim is to document a collaborative autoethnographycapturing our interdisciplinary project team’s personal experiences and reflections.

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

The technician takes measurements and reports results to the chief as directed and follow directions on what connections to change. • Record keeper: The record keeper documents the technician’s observations of the circuit, the measurements that the chief engineer directs and the reasoning behind making those measurements. The record keeper should facilitate communication, making sure that the chief’s directions are precise and the technician’s responses are clear. This allows the troubleshooting process to be documented so the team can reflect on the process afterward.Once the chief engineer figures out what is wrong with the circuit, they direct the

We developed andimplemented new surveys to collect baseline metrics, practices to analyze them, and processes toshare results promptly. The combination of these survey data paired with reflections from staffand student instructors contributed to a culture of data-informed continuous improvement.By introducing a continuous improvement process in Fall 2024, we embraced practices withinthe Scholarship of Teaching and Learning model [14].

Science (B.S.) program requires a one-semester capstone design course. In thesame department, the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) program curriculum also requires aproject management capstone style course. This requirement is among several differences whichseparates the M.Eng. program, which focuses on preparation for industry, from a Master ofScience (M.S.) which typically reflect more academic and research focus. Recently, UIUCcombined the capstone program for undergraduates and the M.Eng. capstone program into ajointly offered course. The details of the merger can be found in an earlier article [11].There are several key benefits to combining the two programs intended to enhance theexperience for students and instructors.

However, they also noted thatfeedback is not sufficient if it does not also prompt self-evaluation within the student.Encouraging the mindset of self-assessment is one way to give students more autonomy andconfidence in their learning ability. In a lab course, students must take the initiative to interpretthe protocol, troubleshoot unexpected errors, and ensure that they have achieved the learningoutcomes in the process of data collection. This process helps students to begin to developengineering intuition [4].However, feedback runs both ways.

Traditionally, these instructionalexperiments are performed in a dedicated laboratory space with large and expensive equipment,which often limits the opportunities for students to work creatively with the devices and criticallyexplore the principles they are tasked with testing.One way to mitigate the shortcomings of a centralized laboratory would be to provideexperimentation kits that each student can use on their own or in pairs, potentially in spacesoutside a dedicated laboratory.

Laboratorycourses are simply used to support and demonstrate theoretical aspects of core engineering classes[1]. Traditionally laboratory experiments involve a step-by-step procedure with a known outcome.However, this method has proven to be effective in demonstrating a concept, it limits the student’sengagement in learning and doesn’t enhance their problem-solving skills or creativity

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
