IntroductionRobotics is becoming one of the most attractive majors in the Colleges of Technology because ofthe advantages in respect of applications, jobs, and prospects. Therefore, more and more Collegesof Technology have or are planning to create robotics program. Usually, as an interdisciplinaryfield, the robotics programs are provided by either Computer Engineering Technology or MET.However, students of Engineering Technology, especially MET, are facing two dilemmas whenproviding robotics courses:(1) Technology programs mainly focus on hands-on skills and there are fewer fundamentalrobotics-related courses in the MET curriculum than in electrical engineering

-direct their own creative idea generation and then move from that into theformation of a team work plan. A few learning interventions were employed with the goal of promoting students’ growthin confidence and ability to work on open-ended problems. One intervention was the use ofimprov-theater inspired game breaks during class. Improv-inspired games were used becausethey are easy and fun to implement, and because improvisation is, effectively, an open-endedproblem: the players must create something without knowing what the result will be or how theywill do it [12]. A number of articles have suggested the use of improv-type games as a way toinspire creativity and positive risk-taking in college classrooms, including engineering andbusiness

In the event that a student reportedACT score but no SAT score, the ACT math score was converted to an equivalent SAT mathscore using College Board’s concordance tables [10]. It should be noted that there is errorassociated with converting between ACT and SAT test scores, however the concordance tablesthat were used achieved a 0.89 correlation between ACT and SAT math scores.

toaddress these known deficiencies in our curriculum. In the context of experimentation, designcan be interpreted as the design of an experimental plan to solve a stated problem. This includesdeveloping measurement protocols, study methodology, quantifying experimental uncertainty, anddata-reduction. In laboratory courses that support engineering science courses (examples includestrength of materials and fluid mechanics), time constraints can limit inclusion of experimentaldesign and detailed guidance on technical writing.This paper describes the development and implementation of this unique course.

It is planned to utilize the custom VRflight simulator to assist in motivating students during their aircraft design projects, and provideadditional insight into the aircraft design process. After students get an idea of the size of theiroriginal aircraft, by estimating the power loading, wing loading, drag, lift-to-drag ratio and fuelfraction, the take-off weight can be approximated. This is followed by engine sizing andselection, wing geometry and placement, airfoil selection and tail geometry and sizing. Beforetoo long, the student will be able to “rough out” their original aircraft in X-Plane by specifyingall the necessary design parameters. This will give students the opportunity to take their

3One of the biggest alterations made was the use of the blades from a plastic desk fan against a biketire to turn an electric motor. This design failed as well due to the weakness of the plastic of theblades. Although, the choice to use fan blades was changed, the next design used the idea ofrunning a smaller wheel against the tire. This next design planned to run a gear against the tire ofthe bike, without the thermoelectric generators. This was a much safer idea since the pieces wouldbe running against the tire instead of the delicate spokes. However, this design was still not withoutits flaws. To increase friction and traction between the wheel of the generator and the tire, thegenerator wheel would have required teeth, which would have

Nonetheless, graphicnovels generally require more advance planning and a team.The third reason is that graphic novels are traditionally impossible to edit. The traditional way ofmaking graphic novels involves writing a script, creating page layouts, penciling, inking, coloring,and lettering. All of this is done physically on paper and then scanned into digital form.

In the second round, it was observed that many of the students had learned thevalue of planning, forecasting, and managing risk when determining the size and source ofinventory replenishment orders. To this end, they applied logic and math in an effort to improvetheir decision-making. For example, one team purchased their entire inventory from California inthe first round, which helped them reduce their total material cost. However, the late arrival ofthe shipment in the third week prevented them from satisfying customer demand in weeks oneand two.

-known within the ASEE community that hosts Lean LaunchPad® Instructorcourses, describes the approach the following way: It emphasizes experiential learning, a flipped classroom and immediate feedback as a way to engage students with real world entrepreneurship. Students learn by proposing and immediately testing hypotheses. They get out of the classroom and talk to customers, partners and competitors and encounter the chaos and uncertainty of commercializing innovations and creating new ventures…students will do, rather than plan to do. Unlike many approaches to entrepreneurship education, Lean LaunchPad® does not rely on static case studies or fixed models; it challenges students to create their
