These results are for the only lab questionnaire conducted to date for the course.Such comments are heartening to the author/instructor and also illustrate that hands-on labs canstill have relevance in 21st century engineering education.The author/instructor further notes that team-based hands-on laboratories can present goodopportunities for active and collaborative learning. The student comments alone would seem tosuggest that, and most engineering educators would likely concur that the topics treated by sucha course may be transmitted more readily and more effectively to more students with a labcomponent than without one.The active learning aspects of the laboratory experiences in this course include
