technologies are taught, one may findstudents from different levels such as undergraduates in senior level, graduates with no ability totake electrical and/or mechanical measurements, and students from industry with little or noexposure to newer measuring instrument and techniques.This paper introduces several laboratory activities that could be replicated to teach students howto take accurate measurements of electrical, light, air flow, and heat flow parameters beforeconducting energy audits. The focus of these labs is not to introduce how to save energy but tointroduce many aspects of the energy management. For example, predictive maintenance is anintegral part of energy management. Ultrasonic and power quality measurements may not beused directly

and the required workforce. Especially in engineeringfields, the synergy between theoretical and laboratory components needs to be rethought with thepossibilities of inter-disciplinary flavors. There is also a demand from the industries, for moreexperiential learning focused courses.Digital transformation is happening in many sectors leading to transformations in the workforce[4]. The transformed workforce now needs to be aware of digital tools and possible risk factorswhile using them. Moreover, more digital devices and workflows have unfortunately resulted intechnological drawbacks, and cyber-attacks [5, 6]. The actual number of cyber-attacks may belarger as many industries do not report attacks or may successfully deal with them. The

Such activities constitute a personally rational response to a reward system which pays off for grades rather than knowledge.”The use of extrinsic motivators, particularly grades, is ubiquitous throughout universities,even though their negative effects on student learning and interest have been documentedthrough hundreds of studies. One of the main findings, confirming Kerr’s comment on“displacement” via Cognitive Evaluation Theory 17 – 22 , is that extrinsic motivators likegrades tend to reduce interest and enjoyment by shifting perceptions of control towardexternal, rather than internal forces.While the laboratory and experimental

Accordingly, Kovarik, Robinson, & Wenzel [19]state that when students engage in collaborative activities, they are more likely to form newfriendships with their classmates, both in lectures and in the laboratory. In turn, this encouragessocialization and can result in students identifying study partners with whom to connect outsideof class time. In addition, collaborative work helps people to practice verbal and writtencommunication skills. All this enhances self-efficacy and sense of belonging.

the practice of engineering or its teaching for innovation. As a long-term consequence, U.S. research-oriented graduate engineering education has become world preeminent and is excellent for the graduate education of future academic scientists for basic research. But a ‘disconnect’ exists in professional graduate engineering education for the creative practice of engineering at too many of the nation’s universities ─ contributing to the long-term underdevelopment of the nation’s graduate engineers and sequential decline of U.S. engineering for innovation. As Eric Walker, pointed out years ago: “Teaching research isn’t teaching engineering.”16 The National Collaborative Task Force reaffirms Christopher Hill’s assessment

Further,we provide application examples that could be used in a typical introductory parallel programingcourse. We argue that HPCaaS platform like ASETS can significantly benefit the users of HPCin the cloud as if their program is running on a dedicated hardware in their own laboratory. Thisis especially advantageous for students and educators who need not to deal with the underlyingcomplexities of the cloud.1.
