, we tested our prototype in water. Twodifferent environments were utilized to test the fish including a tub filled with water (Figure 5)and a pond (Figure 6). In the small tub, a pencil was drilled through the head of the fish tostabilize the head and only allow movement to the body and tail. Once the stationary actuationwas validated, the fish was placed into a pond to test its movement. Testing the soft robotic fishin a pond helped gain information on how fast and how far the fish swam, and whether or not thefish could stay afloat. After testing, it was found that the fish swam at a speed of approximately0.09 m/s. Using syringes to control hydraulic actuation led to slowing down the fish’s movementand making it difficult for the fish’s tail

foundational skills identified by studies in the field. The feedback from both theworkforce and graduating students highlights the demand for hands-on experiences that directlyapply classroom knowledge to real-life design challenges.By systematically guiding students through open-ended experiments, the presented methodologyaims to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application. This work-in-progress reflects our commitment to continually advancing engineering education, ensuring thatstudents are equipped with the multifaceted skills demanded by the contemporary job market.References[1] B.

, the simplicity of the project naturally yields the project to be used in awide variety of learning environments and student learners. When implementation does occur, the generatedresults would need to be studied and further modifications would be made to the teaching approach.Eventually, the module and learning materials along with the project will be made highly accessible toeducators through a centralized soft robotic teaching website being developed at Rowan University.AcknowledgementsThis material is based upon work partially supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.2235647.
