recommended that thestudents do the same for their own personal computer, as it seemed to be the least complicatedway to set up a full-fledged environment for programming in Python.We also chose to have the students do their Python programming in JupyterLab, a web-based,interactive graphical interface and development environment that allows for relatively seamlessintegration of live code, text, and graphics all in one platform (Project Jupyter, n.d.). JuypterLabis available as an installable package, but it also comes installed with Anaconda.The Arduino-Pymata approach to integrating hardware into ME 30 sufficed for the fall 2018 andspring 2019 semesters, however it was not an ideal solution, because to work with the Arduinohardware outside of the

Within five minutes of the very first class, the teams were given a hypothetical situationand a problem to solve. The hypothetical situation was that an unknown molecule was infectingstudents on campus with a deadly disease (which turned out to be eerily predictive of theCOVID-19 pandemic). Teams brainstormed methods to solve one of the following: (1) Diagnose/identify the

The OIPI initiative was launched by one of China’s elite universities(S University afterwards) in 2019, seeking to broaden the participation of higherengineering education in China, especially in the field of electronic design[13]. Toachieve this, it aims to, on the one hand, widen the accessibility of students enrolled innon-elite universities to high-quality educational opportunities; on the other hand, supportthese students’ self-forming agency to acquire desired academic success, which means totape out in this initiative.1Open platform consists of ‘open in’, ‘open resources

Indeed,while Empathize is the first aspect of the d.School model, the team emphasizes an iterative andnon-linear design process, highlighting the role of empathy throughout one’s design process.In the context of engineering, the ways in which empathy manifests within design may varybased on the goals of a design project or the phase of the design process.

The principle aim of the course was to provide a vehicle for students“to experiment with connecting engineering and the humanities” [3]. To facilitate thisconnection, students were tasked to develop designs for robots that related to themes in MaryShelley’s Frankenstein. As they read the novel, students reflected on certain passages theythought could serve as thematic inspiration for robot design concepts. In their reflections,students included a sketch of the concept design along with an explanation of its connection to aparticular theme in the novel. After analyzing the

At first, the students were required to produce a portfolio related to their researchprojects that the librarians graded and to which they suggested ways of improvement. Thisevaluation method being time-consuming, it was changed to open-book exams. After a fewyears, the librarians decided to modify the assessment again to allow students to work on theirown projects. Moreover, a heterogeneous clientele posed some significant challenges. Forexample, the university has welcomed a growing international graduate student population thatdid not speak French.
