Engineering - Engineering Technology (58)The project, a collaborative effort between Texas Southern University and Prairie View A & M University -- two HBCUs, is revamping laboratories to provide virtual and remote (V-R) access and preparing instructional material for this type of laboratory. The project team is developing the framework and website for the laboratory and web-based experiments for courses in digital signal processing and in robotics. The web-based framework is scalable so that faculty members can gradually add more VR-Lab courseware to benefit more courses and more subjects. Developing this laboratory is setting the stage for infrastructure sharing between different institutions. The evaluation effort, which is being led by an outside evaluator, is using surveys and utilization statistics to monitor progress toward the project outcomes. The project's material and results are being disseminated through website postings, conference presentations and journal papers. Broader impacts include the emphasis on minority students, the dissemination of the instructional material, providing laboratory experiences to remote and non traditional students, and K-12 outreach through existing programs

工程-工程技术（58）该项目是德克萨斯南方大学和Prairie View A M大学（两个HBCU）之间的合作努力，正在改造实验室，以提供虚拟和远程（V-R）访问，并为这种类型的实验室准备教学材料。 该项目小组正在为数字信号处理和机器人课程的实验室和网络实验开发框架和网站。基于Web的框架是可扩展的，以便教师可以逐步添加更多的VR-Lab课件，以惠及更多的课程和更多的学科。开发这个实验室为不同机构之间的基础设施共享奠定了基础。评价工作由一名外部评价员领导，正在利用调查和利用统计数据来监测项目成果的进展情况。该项目的材料和成果正在通过网站张贴、会议介绍和期刊论文传播。 更广泛的影响包括对少数民族学生的重视，教学材料的传播，为偏远地区和非传统学生提供实验室经验，以及通过现有计划推广K-12
