While there arewell-established cryptography courses offered in the Computer Science and Mathematicsdisciplines, these classes tend to focus on mathematical foundations rather than servicesand applications. Consequently, the developer of such courses finds that resourcesparticularly those relating to “hands-on” activities are lacking.For a lab module designer, creating modules that support an applied cryptography classpresents several unique challenges. For example, the choice of laboratory softwarepresents a unique challenge. This is especially true since most commercial

During the pandemic, theengineering technology education model has been shifted by forcing in-classroom classes to gointo distance online learning mode [5,6,7]. It is very challenging for students to work on a hands-on embedded project and understand how instruments to be used to measure and test withoutseeing these devices and electronics components in person. Without the real physical equipment,it is difficult for instructors to show demos and teach as well. So, the project guidance must beredesigned, and the assessment must be updated accordingly to measure the

This not only increases general confidence in the ability of the devices to beimplemented into hazardous systems, but also allows for failure analysis to be iterated on infuture designs. Educating students on the importance of reliability testing can be difficult due to thetypical ways students are exposed to devices and systems in classrooms and laboratories.Students, especially at the undergraduate level, are often exposed to devices/systems just afterlearning about them. Laboratory exercises are often geared towards normal system performanceand rarely contain fault analysis. When fault analysis is examined in a classroom environment

Engineering faculty have many responsibilities, including, but not limited to: teaching a heavy course load, laboratory research, writing publications, applying for funding, attending conferences, managing laboratory materials and safety, mentoring students, networking with industry, and professional development. Therefore, professors’ time is often limited, and professors may not see the value in adjusting a preexisting course. 5.
