influenceparticipants' responses. Third, the study included a mix of closed-ended and open-endedquestions, allowing participants to express their thoughts and experiences in their own words.However, despite these efforts, the possibility of response bias cannot be entirely eliminated,and the results should be interpreted with this limitation in mind.Finally, the rapidly evolving nature of AI technology presents another challenge. The study'sfindings are reflective of the current state of AI and may not remain relevant as newadvancements and shifts in the industry emerge.6.2 Future WorkTo build upon the findings of this study and address its limitations, future research couldexpand the scope to include a more diverse range of participants from various

Though the student grade is more of a representation of thecognitive domain, it is a good measure of the student engagement level and, when compared to grades inother assignments, reflects the impact of the gamified problem on their learning.In order to separate the assessment of the data (including coding of the reports) from the evaluation ofgrades, the authors split these responsibilities. MG, who was the instructor in the course, assessed all reportswith the rubric. RVG, who did not meet the students and therefore held no biases towards any of them

student-to-instructor interaction has a significantimpact on students’ learning and engagement [31]. Similarly, studies also show that student-to-instructor interactions help the student create a sense of belongingness in the online courses [32].Limitations, Implications, and Future WorkSimilar to other research studies, this study also comes with limitations. The sample recruited forthis study includes participants from one university at undergraduate level and is not representativeof the broader online engineering programs/community. Additionally, the undergraduate studentsrecruited were from only three engineering majors: information technology, software engineering,and graphic information technology, which does not reflect the experiences of

the first mechatronics course in Mechanical Engineering Technology(MET). The lab modules provided students with practical experience in using IoT technologiessuch as MQTT, ThingSpeak, and Simulink to design and control mechatronic systems. Themodules covered a range of topics, including motor control, feedback control, and systemmodeling and simulation. The course provided students with a strong foundation in thetheoretical concepts of mechatronics, which were then reinforced through the hands-on labmodules. The success of the course is reflected in the positive feedback from students, whoappreciated the practical skills gained through the lab modules. Moving forward, the course willevolve to meet the changing needs of students and industry

Active learning allows for engaging with higher-orderthinking tasks, such as analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating applied course content[15]. This practice of high-order thinking tasks occurs in formal and non-formal STEMeducation environments and can incorporate self-regulated learning, self-monitoring,and self-evaluation [13,14, 15, 16, 17].

The universitylearning center was still troubleshooting issues with Moodle at that time, including problemswith students and instructors uploading and returning assignments. The Moodle optional surveywas given to determine how much Moodle affected students’ opinion of the ME 419 course.Some students in Winter 2012 also commented that the instructor needed to more clearly presentthe material by giving more lectures and teaching programming mechanics, which were not theobjectives of the course as outlined in the syllabus.

Although enrollments in STEM transfer-levelcourses have increased for all student groups and for all STEM areas, the rates of increase aresignificantly higher among minority students, especially for engineering, mathematics, andphysics where minority student enrollment has traditionally been lower due to inadequate highschool preparation in math.The success of Math Jam has prompted Cañada College to institutionalize the program.
