instrument front panels are used to control and read theinstruments by means of remote control. To avoid potentially serious student mistakes e.g.overloading a component the teacher can preset limits to the source voltages which areaccessible to students. The teacher can also restrict student circuits by, for example, dictatingminimum impedance in loops created with aid of the components provided. The number ofnodes provided on the virtual breadboard is adequate for experiments in undergraduateeducation. The laboratory is always open and can be used by registered students and guest usersalike. The time-sharing scheme used allows simultaneous access for up to 8 client PCs. A 56kbit/s modem and MS Internet Explorer are all that are required. The

. Thewires were categorized according to length and function. Where before, the studentswere always searching for the right type and length of wires, the wires were now easy tofind. As an added benefit, the wires were always returned to where they belonged, andthe students developed a sense of responsibility for taking care of the lab. As a matter offact, the morale and attitude of the students improved. The students did not have anymore equipment available than before the re-organization, but now it could be easilyfound.Then there was the matter of getting rid of some of the old equipment that was in the lab.There was reason to believe that certain items were just stored in there.

hour long standardlength recorded lectures a week. The instructors of courses observed which topics the studentswere struggling with and developed micro-lectures to cover those topics.Literature ReviewThe idea of micro-learning and presenting the content in micro-units was first introduced in 1980as “micro-teaching” (Hug, T., 2005). Research conducted by (Shail, M. S., 2019) indicates thatmicro-learning prevents learners from being overloaded with information and can improve theirretention capacity. Due to the limitation of the working memory of learners, micro-learningrequires minimal effort from individuals to master the content, and it provides dense and yetfocused topics in fun and engaging fashion (Jomah, et al, 2016).

This team dedicatedthemselves to the “Engineering a Culture Overall” (ECO) initiative, which is an effort focusedon improving the culture in the department by focusing on accessibility, diversity, equity, andinclusion (ADEI).

Therefore, the initial designwas dependent on a “script overseer” such as a graduate teaching assistant with programingexperience, to run the applications via accessing the source code. For data mining to occur, theapplication necessitates access to the Canvas LMS. This means that the user would have to inputa bearer access token, and URL course specific values to the source code. In addition to this, theuser would have to manually open the matrix of questions to tag each question with skill(s).There were two main concerns with this, first, the user would have to feel comfortable withmodifying Python programming language

Christensen described growing need forboth “top quality engineering scientists” and “engineering statesmen,” arguing that the lattershould be “trained to have the breadth of social knowledge and technical excellence to transferAmerican know-how in civil engineering to underdeveloped countries.”8 Christensen clearlytook the position that some of this know-how should be developed at the undergraduate level,adding that “[t]he 20 per cent of humanistic activities so widely accepted is only a start towardwhat is needed.” S. S. Steinberg, Dean of Engineering at the University of Maryland, took asimilar position.
