Google Cloud engineer delivered a guest lecture on containeriza-tion and deployment. In this lecture, students learned how to deploy a full-stack web app usingcontainers.Industry professional guest lectures added a rich, insightful layer to the course. Our guest lecturerswere four alumni currently working at leading companies such as Microsoft and Google, workingin areas such as IoT, Cloud, and Project Management. The first two lectures helped the studentsset up their project with PM and good software engineering practices in mind. These lectures fo-cused on establishing best practices for project management and software engineering, equippingstudents with a solid foundation for their project work.

Due to lack of scientific, namelybiological and engineering research labs and professor-led laboratories, undergraduate students at the college are leftwanting when it comes to these kinds of experiences. At the university level, undergraduate and graduate studentshave the ability to approach a professor and principal investigator and ask for mentorship in their researchlaboratory. Thus, allowing these students to pursue their own graduate and post graduate goals in this professionalsetting; an experience that is dire to all students wishing to become the great scientific minds of our community.In order to rectify this situation and create a more level playing field for community college students, bridgeprograms have been created in

. Typically, the objective is to design a device or process that has value to acustomer (user). The project begins by defining a performance problem associated with anapplication and ends with a design solution. The problem drives the learning required tocomplete the project. Managing the project requires the engineer to demonstrate effectiveteamwork, clear communication and the ability to balance the social, economic andenvironmental impacts of the project.” This description provides us with a good sense ofthe attributes of a project or students’ performance that need to be assessed. Based on the foregoing, it would be important to bear in mind that in any PrBLbased course, professors are mostly trying to assess learning in a practice-based

Service courses for engineers are often taught in large lectures,and an instructor facing a class of 250 may be better served by knowing that most of thestudents are understanding topic A while relatively few understand topic B than byhaving 250 separate profiles covering each individual.With these ideas in mind, the goals of the research reported in this paper are thefollowing. Create an online homework system addressing procedural problems that tracksstudent usage carefully. Apply data-mining techniques to the data collected by the systemto answer the following questions 1. Can conceptual learning be identified from analysis of student responses to procedural problems? 2. Can transfer of learning

introduced in a robotics course (through reading or lecture) canbe physically implemented as a mechatronic system. The design space of mechatronicsystems is immense allowing opportunity for rich variation in designs for a specific endgoal. Also, creating these systems requires skills from various disciplines (mechanicalengineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and more). This interdisciplinarynature in fact suggests the constructionist approach, in which students with specializedskills can gain knowledge from those with different backgrounds by working togetherthrough a creative design process.3 Applying Directed Constructionism to the General Robotics CourseWe began to apply these new ideas in the second offering of General Robotics
