the information in this document may not be new, but it was acquired the hard way:through empirical experimentation. One of the unique properties of this project is that it wasdriven from an Energy Industry instrumentation and control perspective. While originallyfocused on the Energy Industry, an unexpected benefit of this project was the acquisition of newknowledge in many areas including but not limited to, online teaching and learning, research anddevelopment, technology integration into academia, and human machine interface development.This is the main motivating factor in producing this document. If remote laboratories are tobecome a permanent and legitimate part of online education, we need to learn from each other’swork. It is our

Trends in the data indicate that including an active learning component in atraditional passive lecture series adds value for students in two worthwhile ways. The first beingan increased awareness of less traditional, yet critically important, professional communicationskills and second, students develop a sense of self efficacy in a public facing aspect ofprofessional life.Overall the structured active learning approach to the planning and execution of a traditionalweekly lecture series by the students was a success.

Numerous curricular efforts involve simple machines and related physical systems,but these do not yet build toward a systematic and longer-term vision for promoting thedevelopment of reasoning about mechanisms. The research we describe here was developed inpartnership with a team of engineers and science educators who aim to support the earlydevelopment of mechanistic reasoning through a curriculum that challenges children to designkinetic toys called MechAnimations. Our research aims to characterize the intellectual resourcesavailable to children as they engage in design challenges and to describe the process by whichthese design activities may promote development of mechanistic reasoning.

experience, and weather. This year theMCC Drone Design Team is made up of 12 students, including 4 returning members and 8 true freshman. As acommunity college design team, one of our main constraints is the student graduation rate. Students graduate atdouble the rate compared to a 4 year institution, forcing team leaders to quickly educate and prepare freshman stu-dents for competition. A limited budget is also a constraining factor that most teams face when creating a new sys-tem. Our team developed the BFL system with parts from legacy systems, $3800 from internal university sources,and 3 business sponsorships. Without these resources, our team would not have been able to create this new systemand sustain the AUVSI-SUAS design team. One
