three-link robot. This robot will be given a specifictransformation at each link. The robot will show the beginning and end positions of the robot. It will alsoshow the DH matrix for the forward kinematics. The inverse kinematics is very similar to the teaching of forward kinematics except instead of givingthe transformations the end effector position is given. The robot will represent the movements to thesame position but will mathematically work backwards to find the transformations. To teach the Jacobian, a predefined robot is used to calculate all Jacobian(s). Then the robot ismoved to all values found to show students the singularity at these points. The examples for trajectory planning will include a dynamic visual of a pre

... Figure 1. Image from Student 1’s response ...In the image above the red cord represents the sweep in the xy plane that allows us to form the plane with the z axis. It's important to make sure that the vector is found by moving "down" from the z axis rather than "up" from our projection in the xy plane.Student 2 made direct connections between the physical model and an abstract symbolicrepresentation of the relationships. Going back to the example vector, we can use the following equations above to get the unit vector. Figure 2. Image from Student 2’s response So why exactly is the unit vector so useful? One of the characteristics of a unit vector is that when you multiply it with a

The first factor, which contained items focused on students’ generalengineering attitudes (i.e., sense of belonging in engineering, academic self-confidence and self-efficacy, and attitudes toward persisting and succeeding in engineering), fits well with theengineering as people dimension. This dimension takes into account that engineers areindividuals who have their own skill sets and experiences in engineering, which contributes totheir feelings of belonging because there are certain values and skills that are more acceptablethan others [31, 58].

Since high self-efficacy and self-concept predict higherachievement [7], encouraging these in students who are traditionally underrepresented isimportant and something that is not accomplished simply by having high science motivations,value of science, and learning motivations and habits in the areas of science and engineering.Thus, additional effort must be made to help students connect what they are learning to theirability to perform engineering and science skills (self-efficacy) and their identity in STEM (self-concept).

Previous works in using MATLAB [16] in graduate level control systems, such as [3-4], have beenfocusing on the numerical solutions and simulation capabilities of MATLAB. In this section we will introduce,by way of several examples, some functions in the Symbolic Math toolbox that are useful in obtaininganalytical solutions to common control system problems. A typical problem in linear control is to obtain the transfer function matrix of a system given in statespace representation. If the system is given by i(t) = Ax(t)+ Bu(t) y(t) = Cx(t) +Du(t)where A, B, C, and D are constant matrices of appropriate dimensions, the transfer function matrix, H(s
