Promises that it gets better with practice offer little comfort to strugglingstudents. It is more useful to demonstrate the many factors that are involved. Each factor iseasily understood and with some effort it can be mastered. However, the combinations andinteractions make the overall composition process complex.

Accordingly, during the two long semesters in 2022, we tested ourinnovative online lab teaching strategies in the laboratory sessions with the following activelearning strategies in the laboratory sessions by a) developing and implementing open-endeddesign experiences into lab work, b) establishing teamwork in online labs, c) creating an onlinelearning community and to overcome isolation, and d) incorporating pre-lab simulations and pre-lab video demonstrations. These core lab learning strategies were applied in five EE courses:Circuits, Electronics I & II, Microcomputers, and

efficient in learning. All together with using active learning, instructors mustalso consider the ‘Student Resistance to Active Learning’ which remains a new area of interest forengineering education research [12]. ‘Student Resistance to Active Learning’ may be reduced byemploying the strategies proposed in literature such as varying the teaching methods usedthroughout the course and making and using a public grading rubric for students to avoidperception of grading unfairness, just to mention few [13-14]. Although, this paper focused on thedifferences in student expectations on the efficacy of instructional practices, the impact of thosechanges on the learning outcomes is yet to be determined and is the focus of our future work.References[1
