The context for peer review of an oral presentation is the assignment of a“slecture,” a term coined by the professor to refer to a student online lecture. These lectures arebased on topics in the course teaching material; students are allowed to choose one whichinterests them. They can also choose the medium of instruction for the slecture—text, video of astudent explaining at the blackboard, video of a hand on paper with audio, or a PowerPointpresentation with audio. These options help students who may feel uncomfortable speaking andappearing in a video.

Moreover, PBL has been usedin different fields of study, including the humanities [6] social sciences [7] natural sciences [8]formal sciences [9], and applied sciences [10]. In regard to PBL in STEM education, PBL can beunderstood as an educational approach such that students learn and develop deeper STEM skillsby working in teams on meaningful real-world engineering design projects [11]. Theseengineering design projects may have different goals, such as creating products or services,solving a problem, or answering a research question [4].

time and money in theprocess [11]-[12], as well as to improve the conceptual understanding of students [13]. This hasbeen attributed to the ability of simulations to allow students to act as their own investigators dueto their dynamic and interactive representation of physical systems or phenomena. Students can,at their own pace, develop and test their own models in order to develop an understanding of thephysical system in a way unique to each student’s learning process [13]-[18]. This versatilityallows simulations to cater to a wide range of individuals, especially those who find “hands-on”activities more effective than lectures and reading material.

One good way to handle this complexityand assist students in learning about the development of engineered products is by providingenhanced visualization of the processes and concepts involved. This has been recognizedrecently by several researchers who are attempting to harness state-of-the-art virtual realityexperiences to improve the quality of engineering education.

delivering the lectures, assigning homework, and interacting withstudents.2.1.1 Preparing the Course Structure and TopicsPreparing the course structure and lecture topics was one of the most rewarding aspects ofteaching for me. The Introduction to Mechanical Engineering course has been traditionallytaught as an overview of the topics covered in mechanical engineering. When I decided to teachthis course, along with Dr. Wood, we met with Dr. Schmidt and borrowed his notes to examinethe topics covered during the semester. The first thing I noticed was the lack of hands-onlectures. I am a strong believer in making the course entertaining so that the students will becaptivated by the material, instead of the traditional lecturing styles3,6. In particular
