Rahnavard’s robot was different from other educational robots because it was possible toaccess all of the components through the low-level integration, which is different from most robots,which have a high-level integration of components and software control. Students would haveaccess to signals on the robot that could be measured with standard equipment. The robot partsincluded discrete electrical, electronics, and integrated circuit elements. The robot has two analogcommands for velocity and direction, six digital commands, and analog data that can

It is expected that the graduate courses lead, or at least reflect, the current state oftechnological developments and scientific discoveries.

open courses (MOOCs) provide a number of modern offerings; for example, EdXprovides an offering of Valvano’s embedded systems course [7] and Coursera offers an ARMand a TI MSP 430 course [8]. However, both courses offer large, weekly programming projectsrather that small exercises integrated with the instruction. In contrast, the approach introduced inthis paper relies on the use of small, low-stakes assessments and exercises to enable the studentto quickly determine what they don’t yet know, then review the missing information.To fill this gap, the Runestone Interactive platform [3] provides a set of tools for creating interac-tive textbooks, with a focus on in-browser execution of (JavaScript-emulated) Python, a popularprogramming language

is most effective when it reflects an understanding of learning as multidimensional, integrated, and revealed in performance over time. Formative assessment across the software application development process is intentionally integrated into the project. Each learning objective is addressed by at least two means of assessment. 3. Assessment works best when the programs it seeks to improve have clear, explicitly stated purposes. As the first-year students are still developing programmers, opportunities for formative assessment feedback are placed at critical points in the design process. 4. Assessment requires attention to outcomes but also and equally to the experiences that lead to those outcomes. Kolb’s

responses to this climatesurvey, was highlighted as an aspect of the culture of engineering education in Godfrey andParker’s [61] ethnographic study. They found that “the shared hardship was likened to a bootcamp mentality seen as binding students into a shared identity” (p. 12). This “shared identity”may help students feel a sense of belonging. There may be ways to promote these academic andsocial benefits of peer relations within the classroom or curriculum. For example, Meeuwisseand colleagues’ [26] found that more cooperative learning environments had a positive impact onstudents’ formal and informal interactions with peers and faculty, which in turn had a positiveimpact on students’ sense of belonging.Ong and colleagues [6] described a
