Ignitedby this CoP, our course updates benefited from a transdisciplinary approach, as Dugan is inmechanical engineering and Chenette is in chemical engineering. This CoP also let us betteralign what we do in the classroom with industry expectations and with our institutions’ newstrategic plan, which has a theme around infusing sustainability into education [7].We embarked on this study to understand students’ learning, interest, and reception of

Although students expressed some confusion in the first few weeksof the semester, they adapted quickly and did not report this to be a major barrier to theirlong-term success in their courses. To improve acceptance, Fluids Instructor noted theimportance of planning and preparation: “I think with the way I set it up visually, I had to havethe course all planned out from the beginning. So I think that's one of the things from thelogistics side of thinking through things and really understanding, because I've got to havedecided what are the essential tokens up front.

For example, the ASCE BOK states that “civil engineers must be able toaddress the sustainability of a project during planning and to help stakeholders understand theenvironmental, economic, and social impacts” [4, p. 40]. Further, engineers must be able toanalyze situations with conflicting professional and ethical issues in order to determine anappropriate next step [5]. Building these skills in the classroom is critical, and professors mayhave the opportunity to mentor students through the complex problems that engineers solve inpractice.

These profiles are clamped on one side andloaded by a point load at the free end for the static experiments. Due to the different bendingstiffnesses, different deflections are achieved with the different profiles, even though theyweigh the same. To convince the participating audience, these beams should be easilyremovable for weight comparison.Another topic of the planned workshops is the deliberate shift of the natural frequencies of astructure through a suitable selection of the profiles to avoid undesirable resonances whilemaintaining the weight of the structure.

However, the simplistic diamond frame design has survived, is stillcommercially available and fully functional. The bicycle itself provides a rich learning platform inwhich to illustrate topics such as design, manufacturing process planning, tooling, materials, and thedesign/build process.

Phase 1 consisted of scheduling future meetings and drafting the proposal, during which time we began sharpening our skills in time management and task delegation as a team. Phase 2 consisted of proposing and developing our multi-sensor system design. We learned many interesting skills during this portion of the project, including how to run a 3D printer and incorporate sensors onto system hardware. Phase 3 consisted of our midpoint progress checks and presentation, during which time we further harnessed our skills in time management and proper formatting of technical projects such as this one.

5 Summary and ConclusionsAMAR is a four-wheeled, tracked, robot built from T-slot aluminum tubing, 3D-printed materials,and connective components. This robotic system consists of several subsystems. It was completelydeveloped by the students and it was a challenging project. Additional tests are needed to verify theML algorithms’ performance. Also, we have identified several areas for improvement. First,switching back to Tensorflow (from TF-Lite) should fix most errors in plant identification eventhough it will take around 250 msec. Second, we plan to research other mapping tools to be used inthe setup mode. Finally, we should offload the computational unit (Raspberry Pi) to mainly run theML algorithms
