Examples of mechanics experimentshave been reported to help with students understanding, motivation, and concept retention [2],[3], [4], and [5].An experimental platform to study the bending behavior of beams has been under developmentfor several years by the authors [6], [7], and [8]. Originally, a portable, beam-bending apparatuswas designed and fabricated that (a) could fix a variety of metallic and nonmetallic beamspecimens in a cantilever fashion, (b) could apply point loading and monitor beam tipdisplacement and

significantly affected.Introduction and Background It is easy to say that the COVID-19 pandemic challenged teaching techniques andprocedures at traditional institutions of higher education, but quantifying these consequences ofCOVID is difficult, especially for engineering specialties. Did students perform better inengineering classes thanks to the responsiveness and availability of online instruction, or did theysuffer with the loss of laboratories and demonstrations in the standard classroom? Numerous researchers have grappled with this question, across many disciplines andaround the world. Fundamentally, it appears that COVID lockdown periods, especially thoseearly in the pandemic’s development (2020), increased the state of stress

Programs typically use this course for student orientation to theengineering field, to teach problem solving, for design projects and contests, for developingcommunication and professional skills, for developing computing and software skills, and forpotentially a host of other local interests. Some programs have also aligned this introductorycourse with an existing traditional engineering topic, such as engineering graphics, as is the casewith the UT-ME program. There is also an opportunity to introduce the program outcomes inthis course and to even establish some assignments that can be used for assessment purposes.The

their attitudes on ethical issues.From students’ own discussions and from Goulet’s experience, it appears that studentattitudes and perceptions can be favorably impacted by clearly and forcefully settingstandards of appropriate behavior and by integrating ethical and legal decision-makinginto the curriculum. In that manner, ethical behavior is something that is done, rather thanstudied. Wankat and Oreovicz have proposed strategies for instilling honest behavior inengineering students by stressing (as did Goulet) the Engineering Code of Ethics; byreducing anxiety that might foster unethical behavior; by faculty always being a presencein the classroom and laboratory; and by structuring engineering education in such waysthat unethical behavior is

Education students require additional exposure to engineering concepts that theycan subsequently take into the K-12 classroom [1]. Engineering students need practice indesigning experiments and communicating effectively with a range of audiences [2]. In addition,appropriate content and limits are suggested for teaching at three possible educational levels:elementary, middle school, and high school. This virtual thought experiment [3] is part of a largereffort to develop a new lab manual for earth science courses that will include a variety of moreholistic engineering-related lab experiments [4].A novel feature of this experiment is its holistic approach to

Many pedagogical OSs have been developed to teach OS courses through hands-on labexercises. Several universities have developed lab assignments using them for OS design concepts.However, little efforts have been made towards the development of security-related labs in the OScourses. Although few independent projects have been found that will be discussed in the relatedworks section, they do not offer proper documentation or their implementation is quite naivecompared to production-level OS.
