Abstract (EN): This article proposes a set of guidelines to inform the development of high quality laboratory assignments for implementation with virtual-or augmented-reality applications or remotely located equipment. The suggested criteria are based on validated instructional design practices and accreditation standards for engineering degree programs, and can be used to evaluate the design of laboratory instruction, as well. An example assignment is used to illustrate how the specific components of the proposed guidelines might be operationalized to design a new assignment or to improve an existing one. The authors anticipate multiple iterations of these guidelines and welcome constructive feedback for their improvement. © 2018 IEEE.
