At the University of Houston, we focus on hands-on learning in our curriculum. We begin byintroducing Arduino and Matlab in our freshmen introductory level course, ECE 1331: Computerand Problem Solving. In spring 2016, students have the opportunity to program Arduino usingMatlab in conjunction with an LED matrix to design a game as other institutions [1-4] have alsoused Arduino in their classrooms with great success. Although Dr. Marpaung has received apositive feedback in regards to using a Zumo bot in classroom [5], he believes that he can alsoenhance students’ hands-on learning experience by offering them a different set of projectsinvolving an LED matrix.

Prerequisite “gatekeeper” courses most efficiently taken early in the collegeexperience (such as three semesters of calculus and differential equations) could be keepingpotentially interested non-engineering students away. It is hoped that, over time, the curricularflexibility and free electives inherent in the e+ curriculum make the program the engineeringcollege’s most navigable in-migration destination—and thus an increasingly important strategyto broaden participation in engineering by young adults interested in divergent, non-traditionalfutures in non-governmental organizations (NGOs), politics, finances, etc., built upon the solidtechnological

We adapted a year-long curriculum called Living with the Lab(LWTL) that uses a project-based, hands-on instruction to introduce students to engineeringfundamentals, programming, sensors, controls and engineering design. While adhering to thespirit and much of the content of the original curriculum, we added material, created newhands-on projects, introduced a flipped instructional model for the first course in the sequence,and experimented with an alternative final project model. We briefly describe our key innovationsto the LWTL curriculum.Introduction of this curriculum has coincided with
