This point is reflected in the fact that most works in theliterature address only the technical merits and potential benefits of remote access technologies, Page 14.1209.2rather than addressing the impact of remote experimentation on engineering pedagogy. Clearly, anew fundamentally different approach to remotely-accessible laboratories is required.Recently, a new paradigm for remotely-accessible laboratories, namely the eLaboratory, wasintroduced by the authors5.

some teaching practices are more effective than others when teaching science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects; however, there are very fewinstances where these teaching practices are measured within university constructs. Along withprevious research, there has been a nationwide push for the adoption of research-based teachingpractices in STEM classrooms. We conducted a verbal survey interview with engineeringfaculty, using a modified “Teaching Practices Inventory,” to determine the teaching practicesthat are actively utilized in their respective classrooms [6]. Each faculty received individualfeedback and advice related to his or her responses and collective data was used to determinewhere improvements can be made on a

Similarly with the students, the rapport in Case 2 was exceptional, student-teacher, teacher-student. Student ratings in Case 2 were exceptional. And, just to test the hypothesis that highratings come from easy courses, graduates of this engineering technology program are focusingtheir graduate study in the subject area of this professor and are doing top quality work.ConclusionThe advice is simple; find a mentor and learn to teach.
