Abstract
In-person laboratories in undergraduate engineering provide students with tactile opportunities to build career-related skills, which are reflected in the graduate attributes of program accreditation criteria. TwoMechanical Engineering laboratory courses at the University of Alberta implemented live-streaming amidstthe abrupt and indefinite move to online learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic over the Fall 2020 term. A highly motivated and technically competent lab instructional team derived the necessary set-up of hardware, software, and personnel to implement pedagogical strategies that replicated the in-person experience with mechanical equipment as much as possible. This innovative approach enabled students to be involved in the demonstration of experiments in real time, interacting with teaching assistants and peers to ask questions and receive feedback. Students preferred live-streaming of labs as compared to pre-recorded videos.
