Giving the situation we are facing, the world and the way we teach has changed, but what hasn’t changed is NI’s passion to help educators tackle the biggest challenges to prepare the next generation of engineers who will solve the world’s grandest challenges like the one we are facing – we need them to be ready now more than ever. At NI, we care deeply about your students. We are doing everything we can to make sure you have tools and resources available. Check out this webinar on  Innovating Hands-On Learning

zyBooks were made for both online and in-person classes. zyBooks solve the problem of students reading outside class, replacing textbooks by interactive online content that engages. zyBooks integrate auto-graded homework problems throughout. An instructor's role is elevated to adding value -- answering questions, doing examples, facilitating group work -- whether online or in-person. Hundreds of instructors switched to zyBooks due to COVID-19, joining the thousands already teaching with zyBooks in-person or online. This article introduces zyBooks to the ECE community for classes that are online, in-person, hybrid, or that may change mid-semester.

The lab experience is the most formative aspect of an ECE student's academic journey. It allows them to apply what they've learned from theory, textbooks, and lectures and bring it to life in the real world. COVID-19 has thrown students, universities, and partners into a new paradigm. Hopefully this will soon pass so we can continue hands-on approaches to learning, but the past few months have made remote education a reality, limiting access to lab experiments and tutorials.
