Human-Robot Interaction course for graduate students with pre-requisite skills in linearalgebra, MATLAB, Simulink, and Digital Signal Processing7. This course focused on aninvestigation on human-robot interaction and prosthetic control. There was a specific focus onadvanced man-machine interface including neural signal processing, electromyography, andmotion tracking interfaces for controlling and receiving feedback from robotic devices. Therewas an exploration of human physiology and anatomy, signal processing, intent determination,communications between the human and the device. The labs were completed by using theVirtual Integration Environment (VIE) and with robotic devices. All of the programming wascompleted in MATLAB and Simulink. The

. Students participate in labs through which they gain hands-on experience inmilling, turning, forming, welding, and sand casting, among other manufacturing processes. Additionally,through several iterations of an individual project, each student builds a functional, high-fidelity, well-finished prototype of their own design. Drawing from Dewey alongside Lave and Wenger’s theories oflearning through experience and participation in communities of practice, we observe how students engagetheir mind, hands, and heart in a makerspace environment and the subsequent changes that they experience.We hypothesize that greater integration of students’ mind, hands, and heart is associated with increasedengineering task self-efficacy, innovation self-efficacy

In data- and content-focused fields and disciplines, suchas those in STEM, it is difficult to integrate different forms and genres of writing into upper-levelundergraduate courses due to time constraints and concerns about coverage. Writing is seen as aseparate intellectual process because there are a limited number of courses taken as corerequirements from Humanities and Social Sciences, and many courses and writing programs donot demonstrate overt connections to STEM epistemologies. Although practicing STEM facultystress the importance of writing as part of their own careers
