expectationsthat engineering audiences have for documents—expectations for titles, summaries,introductions, sections, appendices, illustrations, and equations. Until students learn theprinciples of engineering writing, a significant gap exists between what those students haveexperienced in general writing courses and what those students are expected to produce inreports for design courses, laboratory courses, and internships. Engineering colleges are responding to this gap. For instance, at the University ofMichigan [4], the College of Engineering has dropped first-year English from their curricula infavor of increasing the number of credits allotted to first-year design. Now having four credits,this first-year design course has both a design

Based onLTW’s early experience performing STEM outreach activities in schools, LTW recognized theneed to create easily accessible tools for visualizing and manipulating sound. In particular, LTWhas been developing browser-based implementations of a signal generator, an oscilloscope, and aspectrogram. These tools, commonly used in physics and engineering laboratories, represent andanalyze data gathered through the computer microphone and sent to the speaker. LTW hasmodified them and added functionalities that allow students to deepen their engagement byplayfully creating sound and music. For example, the

The traditional, the blendedhybrid, and the flexible modalities include face-to-face instruction with social distancing andpersonal protective
abstract nature [2]. Part of the difficulties stem from the lackof hands-on or laboratory components in many electromagnetics courses [3]. Even where thecourses include lab components, the laboratory assignments or demonstrations are often non-comprehensive, for example, course in [4] has a lab component for transmission line andresonator, but the topics in the lab do not cover most of the course syllabus. Other courses maycontain simulations or MATLAB demos on limited topics, [5] but lack physical demonstrationsor assignments.In our university, EM theory has been separated into a two-sequence course, a requiredfundamental course and an advanced selective course. The fundamental course focus on staticfields, dynamic field and wave propagation. The

This paperreports on the course design and particular laboratory experiences, as well as the studentperformance in the (hybrid) pilot of the course.There is existing literature describing similar courses, however, few papers describe these coursesin enough detail to replicate, and many do not cover the exact content that is desired of theMechatronics Systems Design course presented in this work [1]-[9].
