Role of laboratory-based teaching assistantships on the career development of chemical engineeringgraduate studentsTeaching assistantships (TA’s) are an integral aspect of graduate research in chemical engineering.Through TA’s, graduate students can offset the cost of education through subsidized tuition, fees, andstipends. TA’s also provide career training and development as graduate students enter academia or pursuean industry career.TA’s can be of two forms: classroom course teaching opportunities and laboratory course teachingopportunities. Laboratory teaching opportunities are pertinent for graduate students since these availstudents with engineering scenarios and troubleshooting tips. Laboratory assistantships also

and preparations.Students with little or no preparation have a lot of difficulty understanding the physics andconnecting the physical principles to the methods and potential applications within the shorttimeframe each method is discussed. To address these challenges, we augment the (virtual) class by virtual laboratory sessionsin order to reinforce student understanding of the physics and operation of select NDEtechniques (ET and UT). Simulation-based virtual laboratories have long been used to increaselearning in engineering courses. For example, Kukreti et al. [3] developed simple simulationtools to teach fundamental concepts of ‘Strength of Materials’, a core engineering course whileDerks et al. [4] combined actual and laboratory

little preparation and minimalresponse time. The summer of 2020, while most universities offered few courses, was the time forfaculty to regather resources and prepare for the fall semester. Many anticipated the likelihood ofteaching online again and saw challenges associated with this instructional modality, especially forlaboratory courses. A group of enthusiastic and experienced faculty members in the College ofEngineering and Technology (CET) at East Carolina University congregated and started a weekly FacultyConnection Hour (FCH) to network and share pedagogical ideas for remote teaching. Many of thesesessions focused on innovative ways to provide remote laboratory learning experiences comparable totheir conventional face-to-face

This particular experiment was based on similar modulesdeveloped when CU Smead Aerospace dramatically changed to include extensive hands-onlearning and teaching in the Integrated Teaching and Learning Laboratory [3]. The pedagogicalpurpose is to enhance students overall understanding of fundamental engineering conceptsthrough experiential learning while using up to date hardware and software in order to maintainpace with current technology. The use of this particular experiential learning apparatus in alecture/lab connected environment builds upon an extensive amount of literature in activeexperiential learning [4], [5] and has repeatedly been shown as an effective strategy to enhancelearning

, laboratory courses are often ideal for developing proficiency in tech-nical communication and teamwork (ABET Outcomes 3 and 5)[1].Thermal Fluids Laboratory is the second course in a redesigned 3-course experimental lab se-quence for Mechanical and Aerospace engineering students at UVA. Each course is 2 credit hoursand includes 50 minutes of lecture and 2 hours of lab per week. The sequence was designed toexpand the amount of ‘hands-on’ experience within the curriculum and to horizontally align labexperiences with required courses in mechanics and thermal sciences. Faculty teaching founda-tional courses identified a need for students to have tangible activities demonstrating the conceptsthey were learning, which is achieved with targeted alignment of

the US has been impacted by the 2020 COVID epidemic, resulting in amassive shift to online instruction. Although some universities have managed to keep somenumber of students on campus on a rotating basis, many courses had to switch with little noticeto a virtual format. While this is reasonably easy to do for a lecture-only course, laboratorycourses by their nature are difficult to switch to an online only version. Past research has manyexamples of attempts to deliver laboratory experiences in a remote or virtual format, but theselabs may fall short of providing a thorough laboratory experience and are not designed to allowremote and non-remote students to collaborate.Feisel and Rosa established the fundamental goals of engineering teaching

: Robotics Technology in the department of Computer Engineering Technology atCUNY-New York City College of Technology is offered as a technical elective to its senior students. Inaddition to introducing fundamental subjects in both Autonomous Mobile Robot [1] and RoboticManipulator [2], another goal is to prepare students with necessary knowledge and skills for roboticprogramming and design. The course is structured to have a 2.5-hour lecture session and a 2.5-hour labsession each week. When teaching onsite the school (i.e., in-person), students were given physical robotsfor implementation of the algorithms discussed during lectures. When access to laboratory facilities wasimpossible under e-learning (for example, during the COVID-19 pandemic

students make few orno consequential decisions [9]. Many engineering laboratory experiments can be deterministic,and faculty focus on teaching the complexity—the number and interrelatedness of variables [1].Such approaches typically support students to learn about the variables and their interrelations,but not the process of designing experiments. By allowing students to make consequentialdecisions, they may learn about both the variables and their relations, as well as the process ofexperimental design [10]. We argue that to learn how to direct experimental design procedures,students need experience making such decisions. Such laboratory experiments prepareengineering students for the types of ill-structured problems they will face outside the

Students apply theinformation that they look up from the psychrometric chart to calculate the efficiency of thecooler. After completing this laboratory exercise, students should be able to: • Use the psychrometric chart to determine wet bulb temperature using other thermodynamic properties. • Apply thermodynamic properties to calculate cooling efficiency for an evaporative cooler.While we use IoT as tool for achieving the above learning outcomes, it is not our intent to
