materialssuch as filtration media, catalysts, adsorption media, and electrodes. In fact, the successfulcommercialization of solar cells, new lighting technologies, fuel cells, and batteries may dependon the ability scale-up laboratory prototypes to large-area products in high-yield, low-costmanufacturing processes. Tools based on imaging and two dimensional probing will be veryuseful for process control, quality assurance, and reliability studies. Multicrystalline solar cells are particularly interesting due to the intricate grain structures[2-6] which results from the details of the casting process used to solidify silicon ingots fromwhich the silicon wafers are cut. The silicon wafers are processed into solar cells using emitterjunction

the course experience.In the Fall of 2017, planning began for a refresh of the course and laboratories. New laboratorystations were designed and built. Lecture and laboratory experiments were updated to use theAllen-Bradley PLCs. The stations were first used in January 2018.The new laboratory structure delayed the start of programming topics by a week. In the firstlectures and labs, students used a basic system wiring ladder diagram including safety circuitry.In lab they learned the fundamentals of electrical controls wiring and performed basic wiring forsensors and actuators. This was facilitated by a lab station design where the students began witha rolling cart that had a back panel with DIN rail mounted. (Note: DIN is the acronym for

In our Electrical Engineering classes, we havebegun developing self-contained modules to train students in this area. We focus specifically indeveloping modules in machine learning including pre-processing, feature extraction andclassification. We have also embedded in these modules software to provide hands-on training.In this paper, we describe our efforts to develop an online simulation environment that willsupport web-based laboratories for training undergraduate students from Electrical Engineeringand other disciplines in sensors and machine learning.

. Especially true in the first year course,where material is rapidly introduced. They want to have a better sense of underlying conceptsthan that which is presented in laboratories. In the Intro to ECSE class, I do find that the moreinvolved students are sometimes unsatisfied with the short attention we can give topics. Anumber of times I did stay late, trying to provide a deeper insight while not overwhelming themwith math. At a higher level, I credit the Circuits Beta labs for strongly encouraging students togo beyond the classroom. I have tried a similar approach in Intro to Electronics, though, withoutquite the same incentives. I still have about 20% of the class doing extra work, some of which isvery creative and beyond the scope of anything I
