potentialities.IntroductionWest Virginia, a state long synonymous with the coal industry, has played a pivotal role inproviding power for the United States for over a century. This is notable since WV is the 10thsmallest US state and 12th least populated state (home to approximately 1.8 million residents).The power systems industry in West Virginia and its history are complex and interrelated withelectrification, mining, education, its economy, and industrial demands both within and outsidethe state. Notably, West Virginia has abundant natural resources, particularly its extensive coaldeposits nestled in the rugged Appalachian Mountains, which have long established WestVirginia as a cornerstone of coal-based industry [7].Coal has played a significant role in West

ago.To be specific, fossil fuel combustion accounts for more than 70% of energy production in theUnited States and virtually all transportation. In addition, growing demands for energy, risingfuel prices, limited fuel supply and dire environmental consequences command more efficientand cleaner combustion technologies. Engineers well versed in the topic will be needed toaddress this societal need. However, relatively few programs offer a Combustion course at theundergraduate level; even fewer integrate a laboratory into the course.The School of Engineering at Grand valley State University emphasizes a practical, hands-onapproach to education and integrates a laboratory practicum into a large number of its courses.

Students transitioning from Fundamentals of Engineering I to Fundamentals of Engineering II might have the same instructor for both courses since there are only two instructors teaching these courses at the regional campuses. Situations like the pandemic break that bond which causes confusion and lack of concentration and cognitive distress among students. The disruption in learning urges students to explore alternative learning approaches such as virtual or spatial learning, gamification, and even solitary learning which are different from traditional teaching methods used in the classroom.
