ensure the resilience and safety of these interconnected systems in our increasingly connected world. In this work in progress, an experiential learning framework composed of an embed- ded development kit and a set of laboratory experiments is proposed, allowing students to learn foundational principles related to cyber-physical systems security through hands-on experimentation. The embedded development kit integrates real wired and wireless communication networks with industrial protocols such as Modbus/TCP, a real-world programmable logic controller (PLC), models of real-world applications such as submarine position control and a DC motor speed control, and multiple I/O con- nections to integrate IoT

However, despite their increasingadoption in laboratories and classrooms, there is significant variability in the technologies andpedagogical strategies used across different teaching kits. Furthermore, their overalleffectiveness in achieving specific learning outcomes remains underexplored, highlighting acritical need for further investigation in this area. This systematic review adheres to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews andMeta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines to comprehensively analyze the current landscape ofteaching kits in biomedical engineering education.

pedagogical redesign of a summer research experiencefor undergraduates (REU). The summer REU that we have examined has functioned as aresearch apprenticeship program for over 20 years delivering numerous professionaldevelopment opportunities to undergraduate researchers. The apprenticeship part of the programfocuses on experience in a laboratory, conducting experiments or simulations. We have appliedbackward-course design principles to enhance the structure of the program. Backwards design isa way of designing curriculum by starting with the end goal in mind. This means identifyingdesired results (learning objectives) followed by acceptable evidence of learning (assessment)before developing instructional activities (instruction). Although backward

Participants were asked to provide their input,suggest additional areas of need, and rank the proposed educational initiatives on a scale from 1to 5, with 1 being the highest priority. Study results indicated that the most critical needidentified by CJC participants was higher education and scholarship training, as well as hands-ontraining of laboratory/field equipment.

This paperdescribes the design and evaluation of Engineering Component Curiosity Challenges (ECCCs), asuite of self‑directed laboratory modules intended to cultivate intrinsic motivation for lifelonglearning among senior‑level mechanical‑engineering students. Each module juxtaposes twofunctionally similar components—e.g., a spring‑powered versus a flywheel‑powered toy car; DCversus stepper motors—and requires students first to articulate hypotheses regarding
