Additionally, some students missed being able to work hands-on with equipment, and some reported a high workload that made the course stressful. Students had mixed group work experiences, with some describing positive and meaningful interactions and others describing group work as a source of frustration and stress. We find that the new open-ended projects afforded students opportunities to make decisions and think deeply about their experiments, which students report as contributing to their enjoyment and satisfaction with the course. Although we cannot necessarily generalize the results of this analysis to the entire student experience in the course due to the student response rate, the feedback that the course did receive from both students and the instructor was overwhelmingly positive, and the instructors are planning to retain the open-ended projects when the course returns to an in-person format. We conduct a case study analysis, triangulating among several data sources-survey responses and interviews from both instructor and students-to construct an in-depth understanding of the remote course and how students experienced it. We report on one advanced lab course that used the transition to remote teaching to completely redefine the course goals and transition from traditional prescriptive labs to more open-ended projects. However, physics lab instructors employed a variety of creative strategies to overcome these barriers and provide students access to lab-like learning in a remote setting. Replicating in-person experiments was especially challenging for advanced lab courses that utilize specialized apparatus, which could not be accessed by students at home. The rapid transition to remote teaching in the spring of 2020 posed particular challenges for laboratory courses, which often involve students working hands-on with equipment in collaborative environments.

Shivam and Wagoner describe an introductory algebra-based course in which students each did three different remote experiments: a recorded experiment in which students watched videos of instructors performing the experiment and then used their observations to develop a model of the system, a virtual experiment in which students used PhET simulations to make measurements and analyze data, and a three-week-long project in which students had a choice of using a web applet to experimentally answer their own question, designing and conducting an experiment using physical household materials, or using the Algodoo software to design their own "scene." Students reported that they learned the most from the project because they had to be involved at every step, making decisions and thinking critically about their experiment. In the transition to emergency remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, some instructors incorporated projects as part or all of the remote course.
