Abstract
Laboratory (lab) components are an integral component of many engineering courses (40% of core courses in one field, 10-55% of the course grade). Thus, careful lab design that incorporates best pedagogical practices, universal design, and equity, diversity and inclusivity (EDI) is critical. Best practice(s) for (re)designing the lab component of a course from a teaching and learning pedagogy, universal design, and EDI perspective were compiled based on literature review. A scoping review method led to a recursively growing set of critical literatures covering a broad range of engineering lab experiences. These experiences were evaluated to determine capabilities, limitations, and considerations of various lab options. The options include on campus, distance, hands-on, remote, and virtual lab activities. This work synthesizes the literature into a usable lab design guide for instructors who may not have training in, or time to learn, all relevant aspects of lab design for diverse learners.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
