students. There are several labclasses in the junior and senior years which require specialized equipment. The initial focus ofdelivering lab education to satellite campuses is the junior thermal fluids lab on measurementtechniques. There are three styles of laboratory experiments throughout engineering education: hands-on,simulation, and remote (or virtual) labs.1-7 Hands-on experiments allow student to physicallymanipulate components and gather data. Simulations use computer software to emulate the resultsgathered in a real laboratory setting. Simulations can be successfully used to explain and reinforcephysical concepts, but limit the capability for true experimentation. Remote labs use the positivefeatures of both hands-on and simulation

Faculty “teams” from eight mentee colleges and five mentor colleges took part inthis initial gathering of this innovative, collaborative program that was conceived by theMicrosoft Corp. and managed by the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC).The program matched colleges that were already leaders in information technology education(i.e. the mentors) with colleges that were interested in either developing their existing ITprograms or starting new programs (i.e. the mentees).

In the mechatronics courses,each school has chosen to emphasize particular aspects of this interdisciplinary field. Most ofthese courses include labs. They tend to use small DC brush motors, introduce basic electronics(OpAmps, transistors, LEDs, etc.), interfacing circuits and programming microprocessors at theboard level to build popular projects such as LEGO robots (Figure 2c), line-following robots ormaze solving robots. Many of these courses are offered jointly with electrical engineeringprograms. (a) (b) (c)Figure 2

Instructional mediaare used in education to capture the students’ attention, reinforce material, accommodatedifferent learning styles, and provide opportunities for evaluation (Dick & Carey, 1996) 1.
