Beginning in the first week, the students utilized the TeCS to apply thermodynamicsconcepts and continued to use it throughout the course. The students measured temperatures, airflow rates, mass, electrical current, and voltage to analyze the energy inputs and outputs of thesystem. The course material was designed to increase their understanding and intuition offundamental principles through the hands-on projects related to their systems, culminating in athorough analysis of the entire system.This study assesses the impact of the TeCS on engineering self-efficacy using a validated pre- andpost

Aroundhalf of the students had virtual (47.06%) and hands-on labs (50.91%) use experience.Only limited students had the remote lab (2.03%)) use experience. Students in thisstudy showed a significant preference for the hands-on lab with online instructionsand learning materials. Nearly half of the students prefer the hands-on lab (47%),14.70% consider the remote one their favorite, and only 8.83% choose the virtual oneas their preference.
