The course, which has reached capacity enrollment (30+ students) formultiple years, is taught in a computer laboratory with one student per computer. The instructoris accompanied by one graduate teaching assistant (GTA) during active learning class sessions.The overall learning objective of the course is to teach students to use modern computersimulation software to solve engineering problems in a virtual space.

demarcated, which makes contextual conditions important tothe analysis [8]. A case study methodology is not bound by any specific type of data but, more sothan other methodologies (e.g. historical, laboratory, etc.), requires the convergence of differenttypes of data sources for strengthening the validity and accuracy of the findings [8]. This meansthat case study research often requires multiple research methods for collecting data. One way that validity can be constructed in case study research is through the process ofcomparing and converging multiple sources of evidence, otherwise known as “triangulation” [8].For the case of Julie’s teaching and coaching, data included field notes, audio and visual materi-als (i.e. digital audio

As hands-on learning is the prevalent way of education in ET programs throughout theworld, a majority of the courses taught in the programs have a laboratory component. On theother hand, capstone design projects (senior design projects) are a common hands-on course forfinal year undergraduate students across all engineering and technology disciplines.The capstone design courses provide an opportunity for undergraduate students to get involvedin open-ended real-world problems.

This is unfortunate since theinfrastructure required for online education has been primary developed by engineers.The perceived obstacles in widespread integration of online courses in engineering curriculumscan be divided into two categories: physical obstacles and cultural obstacles. A major physicalbarrier is how to provide hands-on trainings, which traditionally take place in laboratories andmachine shops, in an online setting. However, this may not be a major problem since, contrary towhat one may expect, the data shows that online education is primary “local”.
