the standalone technical communication courses in the Departments ofChemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Civil and Environmental Engineering at theUniversity of Texas at Austin [3]. Finally, rather than using a standalone course to teach writing,a number of engineering departments try to interweave the teaching of writing into a sequence ofengineering courses. Such a course sequence occurs with two upper-level laboratory courses inthe Mechanical Engineering Department of Virginia Tech [4]. However, with recent increases in engineering undergraduate enrollments [5], many suchcourses are stretched. Faculty are asked to teach greater loads, often without additional resources.One such example is Pennsylvania State University

) simulation sickness –through three symptoms nausea, oculomotor disturbance, and disorientation, 2) VR SystemsUsability – through comfort and ease of use, and 3) User Experience – through involvement,immersion, visual fidelity, interface quality, and sound. Simulation sickness analysis showed thatthe current VR teaching modules need some adjustments. The analysis of the systems usabilityand user experience of the module were found to be acceptable. In phase III of the research, wewill improve the VR module to make a full self-paced tutorial where the instructor’s role will bemore facilitator than an instructor.References[1] B. Dalgarno, A. G.

The online section was taught by the engineering instructor (Professor A) who developedthe online course. The face-to-face course was taught by an adjunct instructor (Professor B) whowas teaching the graphics class for the first time. The two instructors used the same PowerPointlectures to deliver content to students. For the online class, the PowerPoint slides were presentedin pre-recorded lecture videos, while the PowerPoint slides were presented by the instructorduring class time for the face-to-face section. The same laboratory exercises with

In addition to research, she devotes significant time developing and implementing effective pedagogical approaches in her teaching of undergraduate courses to train engineers who are critical thinkers, problem solvers, and able to understand the societal contexts in which they are working to addressing the grand challenges of the 21st century. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Peer Review and Reflection in Engineering Labs: Writing to Learn and Learning to WriteAbstractClear

for Howard students in order tonot only prepare students for engineering practice, but also adhere to the overall mission of theinstitution. Context helps motivate students to apply their knowledge in ways that increase thelikelihood they will have the “bigger footprint” and contribute in meaningful ways to society.Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts and isknown as a pre-eminent institution of research, teaching, and learning in the sciences andtechnology. As an institution founded to impart applied knowledge, MIT implements educationfrom a laboratory approach, stressing hands-on experimentation. This approach is congruentwith the Institute‟s motto, Mens et Manus – “Mind and Hand.” The mission of
