thisobjective, the authors will also share student feedback on the course that was collected throughmid- and end-of-semester surveys for nearly twenty undergraduate students. The authors believethat a classroom environment that emphasizes discovery – where students act as researchers andplay an active role in building their own knowledge – is a format that can be readily adapted toother engineering disciplines; furthermore, it can inspire higher-level thinking and lead to a moreengaging learning experience.IntroductionIn a status report prepared for the National Research Council’s Board of Science Education,Fairweather1 states there is prevailing evidence that there are greater student learning gains inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM

Vision systems have been introduced and implementedon industrial robots to improve productivity and flexibility of manufacturing systems. Sometypical applications with vision systems are work piece identification, work piece positioning,work piece dimension measurement, position compensation, surface painting, and visiontracking. Therefore, there is a need to introduce vision system technology to students in theManufacturing Engineering Technology program.There are three Robotics courses offered in the Manufacturing Engineering Technology programspanning from 200 level to 400 level to teach
