intend that the change we’ve made to our laboratory courses to equip thestudents with function lab equipment to use at their remote locations will maximize theprobability that all students are able to gain suitable practical laboratory experience that isimportant for their career. Vutukuru6 reports that remote electronic laboratory students weremore engaged and eager to learn by building circuits in the comfort of their own homes thanwhen on campus. Vutukuru also reports that laboratory exercises were creatively adapted so thatstudents got a full laboratory experience though remotely. We believe that the adaptability andinnovation that Vutukuru discusses is a key component that can lead to positive studentlaboratory experiences in spite of the

InvolvementBecause this work is done at a primarily undergraduate institution, there are many challenges indeveloping a long term robotics project such as this one. It is difficult to maintain continuity in ahardware/software development environment when students are only able to actively contributefor 3-6 months at a time during their college careers. It is a challenging balance to find the rightcombination of student and faculty involvement on a long term project. If students retain mostof the technical knowledge during initial development, then when they graduate, a significantportion of the system knowledge is lost, leaving new students with the tasks of figuring out howthe system was organized. On the other hand, if faculty members are overly involved

Inthis context, I think about diversity in three distinct ways--the diversity of engineering, thediversity of solutions, and the diversity of people. The diversity of engineering relates to thediverse projects, fields, and domains engineers work on or in. My goal is to highlight to youngstudents that engineers do much more than build bridges, buildings, and cars. The diversity ofsolutions relates to the idea that any problem will have multiple possible solutions and that eachone brings its own unique benefits and tradeoffs. I want students to understand that

A well-designed, relevant, and engaging curriculum will provide ample opportunities for rigorous exploration of the concepts. We believe that aligning the curriculum more closely with modern practices (i.e., emphasis on software, real data sets, etc.) and integrating oral and digital communication principles into this course represents a natural progression for an engineering statistics curriculum.

Fortunately,visuospatial skills can be explicitly taught [1], [5], [9]–[11]; research shows that when studentswho struggle in this area take a freshman-level course in visuospatial thinking, they havemeasurably better performance throughout their college career than those who do not [12], [13].Additionally, training can lead to significant improvements in visuospatial skills that persist intime and can translate to other tasks [1], [10], [11].For these reasons, the Ohio State University (OSU) offers a visuospatial skills course aimed atincoming freshman engineering students with relatively weak visuospatial skills.
