. Abstract Lab-based courses are generally not available in an online format because of the need forexpensive lab equipment, time consuming technical assistance and troubleshooting. The recentincrease in demand for online instruction extends past current pedagogical methods and is mademore problematic with the addition of a lab component. As part of our initial research, insummer 2010 we implemented an online course by slightly modifying an existing on-campuscourse. Through this exploration, we collect student and staff feedback that will allow us tofurther develop an innovative pedagogical framework specifically tailored for engineeringstudents in an online environment. Our final implementation of an online lab-based course inelectrical

Sustainability has rapidly become a buzz-word in society, butappears to be widely used without a real understanding of its full meaning. Some individualsappear to use

So no wonder that more and more universities try to be part of this trend. With theadvances in technology, the possibilities to create great online classes have multiplied.According to the Sloan Consortium (A Consortium of Institutions and Organizations Committedto Quality Online Education) website[11]: “For the past several years, online enrollments havebeen growing substantially faster than overall higher education enrollments” They also givesome numbers to prove this statement: • During Fall 2006, e.g. there were almost 3.5 million students taking at least
