The ability to conceive of a programming-based change, execute it and observe itsimpact on the hardware in real time has the potential to improve the student learning experience.Improved retention and engagement were both observed when students used real-timemicrocomputer-based laboratory tools to learn motion concepts [11]. Moreover, many ventilationmodes which are still an active area of research and the activity of the VentOS repository suggestthat there are several opportunities for undergraduate exercises as well as genuine researchenabled by this software [10], [12], [13].VentMon and Real-time Breath Tracings for Learning

The design and development of interactiveexercises is vital to the growth and development of students and supports solidification ofconcepts presented in the classroom. As will be presented, the developed fluid trainer provides aunique method to involve all students in hands-on operation of components as well as a meansfor students to provide direction and guidance to other students in the execution of lab exercises.Through the use of this learning method, students are able to better grasp concepts related tomajor and minor head losses, the applicability of Bernoulli’s equation, and pressuremeasurement techniques.

This paper presents sample experiments that were designed by the studentsinvolving the use of basic concepts in vibrations, mechanics of material, and heat transfer.IntroductionFor engineering students, laboratory experiments constitute an essential part of their curriculum.The engineering theories become observable and a few times palpable during these experiments.In general laboratory experiments are designed to have a single path to reach the desired results.Although this approach is effective in connecting the theories and the results, it does not offer
latent variable models to analyze variability and change over time. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 BYOE: Engineering Mechanics with a Twist: Design and Implementation of a Custom Torsion-Testing ApparatusAbstractThe primary value of laboratory courses is that they enable students to experience lessons in ahands-on way. This hands-on approach enables students to see, understand, and believe the re-sults of an experiment much more deeply than simply hearing about the results of others. One ofthe main challenges, however, is finding the resources (time, space, and money) needed to pre-pare and carry out experiments. In this paper

Paul, Oregon State University ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Lab Safety Awareness in Incident and Near-miss Reporting by Students Participating in Engineering Societies: A Case StudyAcademic laboratory safety has gained considerable attention from researchers and researchinstitution administrators since several high-profile incidents in the late 2000’s. Another part ofstudent learning in engineering, though informal, occurs in co-curricular activity such asengineering societies and team competitions where students conduct hands-on activities toachieve certain objectives, usually with minimal (if any) authoritative figures in presence. Thesafety aspect of these co-curricular
laboratory experiment, but italso has disadvantages, namely students have less class time to learn the fundamentals of twovast fields of study—statistics and measurement.Initially, the content of the IDE’s Data Analysis course was organized in series, focusing onmeasurement topics first and statistical concepts second. This sequential model had twomajor disadvantages. First, because the measurement and data acquisition content wasconcentrated at the start of the semester, many students struggled to remember what they“learned” in the first part of the class when they completed their culminating project later inthe semester, in which they designed their own experiment and then collected and analyzedtheir own data. This phenomenon illustrated that
-Progress: Virtual Reality for Manufacturing Equipment Training for Future Workforce DevelopmentAbstractThis Work-in-progress paper presents the pilot study of implementing a Virtual Reality (VR)environment to teach a junior-level Mechanical Engineering laboratory class at Prairie ViewA&M University. The target class is the manufacturing processes laboratory, which initiallyaimed to provide a hands-on experience with various manufacturing equipment. Providingstudents with systematic training followed by repetitive access to manufacturing equipment isrequired for longer knowledge retention and safety in laboratories. Yet, complications from thepandemic and other logistical events have negatively affected many universities
measuredremotely.IntroductionCollaborative projects and laboratories are examples of high-impact educational practices asdescribed by Kuh [1] . They are also examples of both active learning and collaborative learning[2] , which have been shown to increase student learning and conceptual understanding of basicconcepts (as reviewed in [2] ). Therefore, they are an important and necessary component of anyhigh-quality engineering education program.In traditional in-person engineering education, projects and labs typically utilize existinglaboratory equipment and manufacturing capabilities of the school. In recent years, however,there seems to be a growing demand to make these interactive projects and laboratories availablefor remote participants, either as a part of an online

overwhelmed by academic stressors, which include demandson their time [5]. The adverse effects of loneliness are not limited to schools and colleges. Onestudy found that “lonely employees cost workplaces an estimated $4000+ per year (peremployee) in lost days of work” [6]. To further complicate matters, anecdotal observations bythe author show student preference for closed form questions which mirrors the learningrequirements for success on standardized tests, and many students are uncomfortable withambiguity and open-endedness.Educational resources within the higher education landscape are often constrained by space andfaculty and student schedules. This makes it challenging to add a laboratory component to a largelecture-based class to give
