pilot study, description of the labs, and assessment.Development and ObjectiveThe objective of this project was to examine the feasibility of a full-scale implementation of ahome-based laboratory for selected online courses. As institutions begin to offer more onlineengineering courses one of the challenges has been how to incorporate a lab component. Possiblesolutions to consider are use of simulation software, or require students to physically attend asession where all the labs are conducted at one time.Labs designed around simulation platforms show basic principles, however lack the hands-onlearning experiences of troubleshooting issues that can arise with the physical wiring and testingof circuits. These real world issues are just as

toreplace the projected attrition. This phenomenon is colloquially known as the “manufacturingskills gap,” and is immensely complex, with near-limitless contributing social andtechnological factors. In the 2018 Skills Gap in Manufacturing Study [1], industry executiveslist a few potential reasons for the projected shortage of talent; including the lack of interestin manufacturing careers due to misperceptions of the industry and a shift in the skills thatcutting-edge manufacturing technologies and processes demand. According to [1], themanufacturing workforce is aging and in the next decade, there will be a shortage in talent tofill the nearly 2.6 million projected openings. In that same report, manufacturing executivesidentified “misperceptions of

Design Experiences for Future Engineers in Chemistry Laboratory AbstractOur approach to general chemistry laboratory for engineers in our NSF-funded IUSE project(DUE-1625378) involves the use of design challenges (DCs), an innovation that uses authenticcontext and practice to transform traditional tasks. These challenges are scaled-down engineeringproblems related to the NAE Grand Challenges that engage students in collaborative, team-basedproblem solving via the modeling process. With features aligned with professional engineeringpractice, DCs are hypothesized to support student motivation for the task as well as for theprofession. As an evaluation of our curriculum design, we use Expectancy Value

An overriding goal of this UI module is to deepen students’ understanding of UIdesign principles as well as heuristics for evaluating effective UIs and in the process gain anunderstanding of the impact that UI design has in people’s lives.

For senior capstone industrial sponsored projects, the team meetings, sponsor interactions, and project presentations were all converted to a “virtual” format. However, the biggest thing I missed was the interaction with the students in the classroom. I felt the environment was not as interactive and the students tended not to be as engaged. Course content was delivered virtually with lab videos recorded showing how the labs were performed (by the instructor) and the data were collected and sent to the students
