This paper shares the development of an introductorylaboratory curriculum that teaches mechanical engineering students to gain fluency in electronicsand software with system-level demonstration to be a valuable employer of mechatronics. Whenwe talk about systems, we use the NASA Systems Engineering handbook definition as “aconstruct or collection of different elements that together produce results not obtainable by theelements alone.” This is the mindset we want students to carry throughout the mechatronicscurriculum. To focus on the practical applications of mechatronics, we developed a labcurriculum that cultivates system-level thinking around the build and integration of ahypothetical NASA Mars rover project

industry drives an increasingly diverse populationin terms of majors, interests, and experiences towards introductory and advanced courses (Foster, et al., 2018;Erdil, et al., 2019). A thoughtfully-designed survey course can balance the needs of various subgroups andrealize the potential to influence students’ attitudes and beliefs, develop career intentions, and teach coreconcepts.A first-year integrated college curriculum has been a common practice across many engineering and sciencedisciplines for years (Cordes, et al., 1997; Bazylak & Wild, 2007). In these approaches for common curriculumdesign, all those first-year students admitted to programs of study in engineering, technology, applied sciencesand other related fields are offered

I am concerned we may not have enough time to incorporate AIappropriately.” How to integrate AI into school settings and the curriculum is a concern. Onefaculty stated that it is “haphazard at the high school level, while overly focused on machinelearning in our universities.” Another offered more specifics by sharing “there is not enoughfocus on problem formation and epistemology.” Student preparedness for AI is an ongoingdilemma and is due to issues such as the “lack of sufficient mathematical education (foundation)to understand AI algorithms.” For faculty, there is some concern about “attempts to

of the importance of engineeringdesign’s integration with society, in our critical review we found it was mostly grand statementsbeing made in the introduction and conclusion, without much real substance in the meat of thepaper. This was most prominent in A4’s paper. The second paragraph mentions the importanceof covering “social issues like the environment” (A4, p.83), and in the conclusion they concludethe students “have shown significant progress in […] developing an appreciation of theengineering involved in creating wealth for society” (A4, p.90). Whereas, during the textualanalysis of the remainder of the paper, there were almost no other codes for society.This is again evident in A1, where the second sentence of the paper states

Yet,there are limited numbers of inquiry investigate approaches to incorporated CT into acurriculum. Betül Czerkawski researched ways to integrate CT across all curriculum, throughsurveying instructional CT designers. She constructed the survey using the ADDIEinstructional design model. One of her findings showed that the Mind Map(s) (MM) strategycan establish a better connection between CT and instructional design [1]; however, verylittle research existed to investigate the correlation

Moreover, university engineering programs that are accredited byABET are required to meet these objectives. In their recent redevelopment of the student outcomescriteria, ABET [1], [2] identified seven primary outcomes for students. Of these, items two andfour focus on holistic engineering, emphasizing global cultural, social, environmental, andeconomic factors.To address all of the critical aspects of engineering projects, students must successfully analyze therequirements, synthesize information, and evaluate several design options for a given problem.These cognitive skills match well with Bloom’s

As canbe noted from the literature, ROS is powerful technology but has a steep learning curve, whichmakes the interface with MATLAB an attractive alternative for educators. Several educatorshave reported results integrating MATLAB Robotics Toolkit with ROS middleware for mobilerobotics [8], [9]. to improve student accessibility.

It is the successful integration of personal attributes and professionaltraining in the context of a professional community. It is an ongoing process of interpretation andre-interpretation of experiences which allow the strengthening and maturing of an individualthrough a series of processes of professional education and experiences (Beijaard, 2004; Kerby,1991; Kogan, 2000).

Covering this content through traditional lecturing and text-based readingassignments often fails to fully motivate this generation of tech-savvy students to learn to theirfull potential. Improvements to course design and content delivery can improve studentengagement [5-9]. These strategies include developing interactive course activities [6],incorporating multimedia resources [7-9], and integrating practical experiences into the deliveryof the course content [9]. Specifically, recent papers have suggested incorporating a multi-modalapproach to teach ethics using popular media [10].Bearing this in mind, a short ethics module was
