A qualitative review is performed to assess student learning outcomesrelated to the learning activity. Finally, data from a student survey is gathered to assess theirperceived value from the virtual laboratory treatment. This enables an assessment of the effectfrom the selected treatment on the resulting skill and knowledge demonstrated.1.

Adeserved criticism from industry, where most students go after graduation, is that most universityengineering programs do not incorporate enough hands-on activities (experience) with actualequipment. This is referred to as “practical intelligence” [9]. U.S. undergraduate engineeringeducation has a heavy emphasis on theory with much less emphasis on practical applications[10].Wankat and Oreovicz write, “Despite almost universal agreement on the importance of designand laboratory work, there is a tendency to cut these programs since they are expensive, messy,hard to teach, time-consuming, and not connected to the university’s other mission – research”[11].

the certificates will use a “1 + 2” lecture/studio format, where students have two hours of hands-on laboratory learning for every one hour of lecture, maximizing students’ experience by integrating theoretical and practical aspects of the subjects. The certificate programs integrate industry competencies from advanced technical fields, aligned mostly with project-based and problem-based teaching approaches. The curricula are designed to allow non- degree seeking students to take individual courses, as micro-credentials in the respective subjects; they can be accrued towards the certificate completion. Also students may take certificate courses as technical electives if they are approved by the respective programs. 3.1

is one of the difficult topics in thermodynamics. Due to its abstract concept andtheoretical nature, students could easily get lost during a typical PowerPoint lecture and found itdifficult to solve related problems in homework and exams. Even when students could follow thesteps to finish their homework, they felt challenged to connect the concept with real-lifeapplications. It showed that the passive learning format is not effective in teaching this subject. Toimprove the student learning, we added an active learning element in the lab portion of the courseby modifying some of the experiments. In many published conference papers, the active learninghas shown being effective in improving student learning. In this paper, we would like to
