IntroductionWith the current economic downturns where educators are constantly confronted with furtherbudget cuts, fewer resources, and larger class sizes, online (or web-based) learning is receivingmore attention than ever before. One key advantage of online learning is that it can providedirect delivery of education at anytime from anywhere to anyone, and thus
additional component of our educational mission is the training of futurescientists and engineers. Through an ongoing collaborative relationship with the UST School ofEngineering, UST engineering students have assisted with various aspects of the design,construction, and operation of the observatory. In some instances, the engineering studentsbrought knowledge and experience to the task that did not exist among the physics faculty. Inother instances, the students learned new skills and acquired the knowledge needed to performthe task. In all cases, the experience was rewarding and educational to both students and facultyas we engaged in the creative process of problem solving. In this paper, we provide a briefdescription of the observatory, describe

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
