: TheAutomation of Fruit Fly Larvae Genetic Research. This project is in collaboration withgenetic researchers at the New England Medical Center (NEMC) in Boston. The goal isto design a system to automate the measurement of food intake by genetically engineeredfruit fly larvae in order to identify genetic influences on obesity and type II diabetes.Currently, to test the amount of food eaten by a fruit fly larva is a very slow and labor-intensive process that is currently done by hand. With the current process, it would takeyears to test all the genetic lines with the potential to influence obesity and type IIdiabetes. The challenge for the Robotics Academy team was to make a high throughputsystem that would enable the testing to be done in a much shorter

teachingpractice in undergraduate computing classes has been the traditional lecture-based approach, ateacher-centered pedagogy. The utilization of this style is for a multitude of reasons, includingtime constraints caused by professors’ research and service responsibilities, along with theperceived irrelevance of these teaching innovations to their own context. Additionally, universityfaculty have been slow to adopt student-centered practices, especially if they perceive them asunbeneficial to themselves and their students [6]. Unfortunately, research has demonstrated thatthis “sage on the stage” approach provides fewer opportunities for students to engage with thematerial and little room to integrate their own ideas and prior experiences [7].In
