able to complete the activity on time and they were instructed tocomplete the short survey just after finishing this activity.ResultsA set of 12 Likert-type questions with a 5 point choice scale were used to assess the students’perception of impact of the activity on their professional career, and on their interest in learningthe material. The survey questions used for assessing their impression is presented in table 1below. Questions 1, 3, and 6 were focused on their perception of the activity on their career.Questions 11, 10, 9, and 7 were skill development questions, and questions 12, 8, 5, 4, and 2were topic engagement questions.

from the previous semester completed the survey. While the assignment has been run foryears, the data was from the last year that the assignment was performed. The following showsthe survey questions and the students’ responses: 1. Q: The project was interesting? Student Response: Likert Scale 6.3/7.0 2. Q: The level of complexity of the assignment was adequate for this course? Student Response: Likert Scale 6.1/7.0 3. Q: You feel that this assignment should be included in this course for future students? Student Response: Likert Scale 6.3/7.0 4. Q: What changes would you make to the assignment? Summary of student responses: Most often stated was that there should not be any changes. Other suggestions

PhET Buoyancy Online Simulation Laboratory ExerciseAn object is subject to the buoyant force whenever it is floating on or is completely submerged inthe fluid. Buoyancy is the tendency of a stationary fluid to exert a supporting force on a bodyplaced in the fluid [2]. Based on the authors’ teaching experiences, many MET students havedifficulties to solve buoyancy related problems

, but to also introduce them along the way to some basictheoretical knowledge needed to understand the complexity of the final product. The researchteam’s expectation was that exposing the participants to an introductory level of knowledge fromvarious fields will stimulate their interest and will help them identify engineering areas that areof specific interest to each of them. The workshops activities were split between hands-on, Q&Aand presentations, with the latest starting with a brief introduction to the theory of bio-inspiredrobot mechanisms, 3D modeling, animation, STL generation, slicing, G code generation, printingof the robot segments, and concluding with the prototype. The workshops focus was on theconnection between 3D computer
