learning has yet to be seen [4]. The lackof remote teaching in engineering, prior to the pandemic, has been attributed to the inherentnature of the discipline, which requires hands-on training to work with instruments and materialsin controlled laboratory settings [5]. Learning experiences that support practical knowledge andskill development are essential for engineers but are difficult to create in a digital environment[5]. Consequently, researchers have claimed that transiting conventional engineering courses thatfocus on content-centered and designed-oriented learning to online may not provide studentswith the in-depth learning required in engineering [5-6]. Furthermore, converting conventionalengineering courses to remote instruction

Additionally, with most students now readilyable to use computers from a young age, the digital and distance courses are easily acceptedby most rising university students. While there are many classes that do lend themselves easilyto an online format, laboratories, design courses, or lab-style courses are at a distinctdisadvantage. Most lab classes require students to be in-person to conduct experiments, or inthe case of engineering labs, the students would be required to analyze or build something toprove an engineering principle.

. This percentage for engineering courses was mere 0.86%. This is unfortunate since theinfrastructure required for online education has been primary developed by engineers.The perceived obstacles in widespread integration of online courses in engineering curriculumscan be divided into two categories: physical obstacles and cultural obstacles. A major physicalbarrier is how to provide hands-on trainings, which traditionally take place in laboratories andmachine shops, in an online setting. However, this may not be a major problem since, contrary towhat one may expect, the data shows that online education is primary “local”. A little over half ofall students who took at least one online course took some face-to-face courses at the sameinstitution

Instead, a standards-based approach to grading was used, with quizzes overspecific topics. Quizzes were graded “Pass” or “No Pass” based on specifications determined bythe instructor [19].
