One of the challenging factors that we encountered wasfaculty involvement. Since the participating faculty already had a full teaching load during theSummer, it was difficult to arrange lab content in a way that was both meaningful and coherent.As a result, the program

Possible advantages from online education include the ability toaccess material and notes at the student’s own pace at any time, which in turn, may help studentsto grasp concepts more efficiently. Moreover, the information and content of courses is startingto become widely available among multiple institutions [3].

is what the traditional classroom is based on [4]. Interactive strategies arebased around class discussion and group assignments. Students are forced to interact with eachother and the instructor in figuring out the task or concept at hand. This method promotes activelearning and is heavily relied on in the flipped classroom model. Individualized strategies run offthe notion that students learn at different paces, and these strategies are heavily based onprogress in sequential steps. Experiential strategies involve putting a student in the field orsimulated environment that is similar to the environment they could potentially be working in.This type of strategy is very common when it comes to internships, laboratory settings

of essential notions of intellect, drive, and self-discipline thatcenter on bodily ‘normalcy’” [8]. Notions of engineering skill have assumptions about “capable”bodies and minds built into them [12]. For example, to be seen as proficient at circuit design andtesting in an electrical engineering lab, one is expected to have the manual dexterity tomanipulate centimeter-long resistors and capacitors and the visual acuity to see small details upclose. A students’ demonstration that they understand the workings of a circuit is often conflatedwith the physical act of circuit-making in the laboratory. In such instances, lack of physicaldexterity or visual sharpness may be interpreted as lack of proficiency at engineering tasks.Because of the
