Mechanisms and Robotics course. The nextsection describes a fifth project used to introduce automation from a robotics perspective.Robotics – Design and Construction of a 2 Degree-of-Freedom Planar ManipulatorThe fifth project is a “capstone project” for the course. The last four weeks of the semester-longcourse introduce robotics, with a focus on the position analysis of both serial and parallel robots.In the fifth project, students create a two degree-of-freedom planar manipulator - a five-barmechanism with a tracer point. The planar manipulator is a simple parallel robot that introducesstudents to stepper motors and the control of multiple degree-of-freedom systems.The fifth project has several parts. The first is a CAD design and simulation. The

First, middle years design experiences are an opportunity to orient students towardsmore technically and logistically complex project scopes that serve real-world clients. Theseexperiences are preparation for not only senior capstone, which frequently involves interactingwith external sponsors or end-users [10], but also professional practice. Second, team

Currently, opportunities fordivergent thinking in most engineering pedagogy is limited to open-ended design projects, forexample in first year engineering or capstone design courses [10]–[12]. However, even withopportunities to diverge, students may not be taught or facilitated in using specific strategies fordivergent thinking throughout their engineering problem-solving experiences.
