State University Jacob Leachman is an Assistant Professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Washington State University (WSU). He initiated the HYdrogen Properties for Energy Research (HY- PER) laboratory at WSU in 2010 with the mission to advance the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of hydrogen systems. He received a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Idaho in 2005 and a M.S. degree in 2007. His master’s thesis has been adopted as the foundation for hydrogen fuel- ing standards and custody exchange, in addition to winning the Western Association of Graduate Schools Distinguished Thesis Award for 2008. He completed his Ph.D. in the Cryogenic Engineering Laboratory

-dimensional(3-D) structural members/systems. The issue with the former arises since students viewprescriptive, code-based design as an exercise of plugging values into equations disregarding thatthese analysis/design approaches are based on actual physical phenomena – flexure is foundedon strain compatibility and shear on the results of countless experimental tests. On the otherhand, visualizing structures is typically a problem for students who have not been exposed to thedesign and construction of reinforced concrete members via laboratory, work-site, or design-office experience. They have no 3-D reference to help them make sense of the many two-dimensional (2-D) figures shown in textbooks, course notes, and the concrete building code.The question

This trend of educationcontinued and “by 1900, it was generally recognized that American laboratories and methods forthe teaching of engineering were not surpassed and often not equaled in any other part of theworld. This could not be claimed, however, for much of the theoretical instruction in design” 1.Despite the weakness of design theory instruction, the focus on applied learning and hands-onexperience in engineering schools sufficiently met the needs of the booming manufacturing,automobile

Consequently, engineering faculties are constantly faced with the dilemma of establishing abalance between virtual and real labs to address cost problems while graduating sophisticatedengineers with enough practice. One advantage of virtual experimentation and computersimulation is that engineers are better equipped to understand and use mathematical expressionsas well as graphics effectively. The advantages of using engineering simulation-based training also include reducing thegap between the learning environment and the "real" environment, and making available training“real world” situations that are difficult to simulate in a hands-on lab.

One underutilized path forstudents to strengthen those skills is the required sequence of laboratory courses, where studentswrite reports that are evaluated by graduate teaching assistants (GTAs), many of whom speakEnglish as a second language. Historically, engineering GTAs have not been trained informative assessment techniques to help
