practice”— overthe years has come to take on a variety of meanings, with many researchers noting the term hasbeen significantly diluted over the years from its original meaning. Learning community as it isused here is simply a: “[group] of people engaged in intellectual interaction for the purpose oflearning”; a community that is a pragmatic and effective means of educating students as thesestudents get “involved in thinking, questioning, and actively seeking knowledge” (Cross, 1998,p. 9). Both faculty-to-student and peer-to-peer mentorship on academic and professional writinghave been an integral focus of these scientific learning communities, whose aims largely centeraround providing a supportive, sustainable network for both professional and

This paper presents the exploration results ofall three options and provides detailed recommendations concerning how the lab kits may be bestutilized. For analog and digital circuit labs, there are several crucial functionalities that the labkits need to provide, such as AC and DC power supplies, oscilloscopes, digital I/O’s, or FPGA,and an adequate number of channels for each.
