Inparallel, the second approach VIP offers students at different levels a great opportunity to worktogether on building advanced systems. Through VIP programs, students can continuously getinvolved in engineering practice, receive training on diversified skills and develop interests,motivation and concentration. In addition, an adopted mobile laboratory tool, Analog Discovery(AD) kit has greatly facilitated the implementation of these two approaches.KeywordsExperiential Learning, Educational Module Library, Vertical Integration Project, AnalogDiscovery Kit

The class counted for three credits with no laboratory component and met twice aweek for eighty minutes. This course was offered for the second time in the spring of 2015, andat that point, few pieces or equipment were available for conducting traditional water qualitylabs. Therefore, the lessons described in this paper were designed to be inexpensive and easy toimplement with minimal facilities. As at many other institutions, this marked the first time firststudents were presented water treatment technologies in a formalized setting.The series of lessons

Students in a freshman-leveldigital circuits design class, which was historically biased to electrical and computer engineering(EE/CE) majors, served as study participants. Since over 85% of the students enrolled in thecourse were aerospace and mechanical engineers (AE/ME), we wanted to observe whether thestudents connected disparate EE/CE laboratory topics to real-world AE/ME applications(problem-based learning) after writing a substantial research paper on a topic of their choosing,within the broad category of aircraft control systems and design.

Part of the reason for this is students’ lack of experience with real manufacturingenvironments. As a result, many educators of manufacturing system courses share the sameviewpoint as educators in other fields of engineering, i.e., in order to prepare students forindustry and/or advanced studies in engineering, it is necessary to employ techniques that assistthem with bridging the gap between engineering theory and practice1-6.
