These codes, standards, and regulations arenecessary requirements for the installation and building safety of hardware, though our projectconsists of making a prototype rather than a complete installation. The applicable codes are theInternational Building Code (IBC), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Life SafetyCode (LSC), and the Underwriter Laboratories Certification for access control standardrequirements. Otherwise, all ACM, IEEE, and applicable ethics codes are followed. Lastly, we researched the major components that make up typical control access systems,leading our team to the creation of viable design solutions.

worktogether to generate solutions to complex problems. In this context, by fusing two elements,“collaboration” and “laboratory”, the word “collaboratory” suggests the construction of a spacewhere people explore collaborative innovations8. The proposed space for the Design GraphicsCollaboratory9 is shown in Figure 3. The ten flat tables, with four chairs surrounding each table,enable students to interact face-to-face while they work on their design projects using self-suppliedlaptops. The instructor’s podium is in the center, so that the instructor becomes a facilitator withaccess to all tables, rather than a lecturer at the head of the room. Surrounding the studio areprojector screens showing instructional content, and equipment for design

Facultyare encouraged to share the grading rubric with students as well as the grade brake-down for eachpart of the rubric. Not all team designs will cover all area, so students should know it is acceptableto self-assess some as “not applicable”. Yet again, if many areas are left blank or claimed to beN/A, then the students should know there work is lacking.

the relevance of the skills being taught in the course. To address thisfeedback, the instructor chose to make significant changes to the design of the course. In the firstiteration of the course design, class time was devoted largely to instructor-led demonstrationsand student practice limited to the laboratory sections of the course. Pedagogically, theseparation rested on the assumption that students would need to have these skills modeled by anexpert before they could apply it for themselves in the lab sections. With the availability of videotutorials and other support resources that students could access from increasingly ubiquitousdevices; the instructor chose to collapse the differences between the lecture and lab sections;shifting the

Students liked much about the approach, finding the student instructors“personable”, “friendly”, and “approachable”, but students also found the student instructorsamateurish and inexperienced, making comments related to unpreparedness, disorganization, andunclear expectations. Suggestions included having the professor lead the course and having thestudent instructors as secondary instructors. The model in this paper differs from the Kendall andWilliams model in that the professor remains the main instructor and only about one-fourth ofthe lectures are delegated to students with the professor providing oversight and collaboration.Bailey [2] used a peer-teaching pedagogy in a laboratory course.

We present a laboratory project designed to stress this point to students taking a first-year graduate introduction to microsystems. The pilot group found the results surprising andcounter-intuitive. It appears that the project was instrumental in clarifying key concepts inmicrofluidics. IntroductionAfter several decades in which microsystems research mainly addressed electromechanicalsystems [1], the focus has begun to shift to fluidic systems. This shift is driven primarily bypotential application of microsystems to chemistry, biology and medicine [2]. An introductorycourse in

They require minimal physical infrastructure and cost and can exploit existing cloud technologies. Therefore, designing KLAs for online IoT labs should be straightforward. 2. Online labs abstract away unnecessary details and ease troubleshooting - By providing access to VMs for IoT development, we can streamline the setting up phase and focus energy on the subject material that is relevant to the learning outcomes. This applies particularly to online workshops that are short-term. The uniformity of the development environment for all students makes it easier to
