The detailed procedure of this laboratory exercise and the learningeffectiveness of the laboratory exercise were discussed in detail previously25.Here, the focus is on the process of the students performing the assembly in the virtualenvironment. From the student activities in the laboratory, it was observed that all groups wereable to complete the assembly (with the help of a teaching assistant).

NanomaterialsWe have recently developed a one-credit course designed for first-year students considering thenew major in Microsystems and Nanomaterials Engineering. It is based on a successful“Engineering Projects” course offered through our General Engineering department, which hassubsequently been made into a popular summer program for prospective students. The goal ofthis new course, which meets two laboratory hours per week, is to expose students to several ofthe important ideas and concepts in microsystems and nanotechnology, and to give them hands-on projects that will help them learn these multidisciplinary ideas. Further, the “ulterior motive”of this course is to inspire students to stay in engineering, and to give them a flavor of

The students arechallenged not just by the design, but by the integration of these various types of technology.There are two ways we fail to prepare students to meet this challenge.First of all, course work and laboratory work are compartmentalized. A student may take adigital electronics course with a complementary laboratory component. The lab experiencesgained may be very suitable for demonstrating the analysis and design of combinational andsequential logic circuits, but they do not teach the students how to interface digital circuits withanalog circuits or computer software.Another way in which we fail to prepare students to meet the challenge of their capstone designproject is by not providing enough

In Years 2 and 3, engineering studentsneed to master ‘genre-oriented composition’; in other words, they need to be able to matchthe expectations for diverse, yet specific, writing types: cover letters, laboratory reports,design reports, engineering drawings, and oral presentations.

The notionthat a given teaching space is unsafe for persons of sensory impairment or limited mobilityshould begin, not end, conversations about inclusion.The idea that that a visually impaired student could not be safe in the chemistry laboratory shedsa raking light on the moral economy of STEM instruction. “Accommodation” and changes ofany kind deriving from the needs or positions of students (rather than from inside the customaryexpertise of STEM professors) challenge ideas central to the culture of STEM.
