], Matlab-based instruction[7], and conceptual questions for assessment [8]. Novel approaches regarding teaching antenna-related courses were investigated as well [9]-[13].In [9], an antenna laboratory course with helical and discone antenna design projects was proposed.In [10], a theory simplified antenna course with focusing on design, simulation, and measurementusing a low-cost portable kit was presented. In [11], design and measurement of dipole and Yagiantennas were embedded into undergraduate EM course to provide better understanding of EMfield theory. In [12], a four-patch methodology in teaching antenna theory was implementedthrough delivering theoretical analysis, solving problems using derivations and Matlab, gaininghands-on experiences

We introduce a teaching methodologythat allows students to participate remotely in a hands-on robotics course involving the design andfabrication of robots. Our methodology employs 3D printing techniques with flexible filaments tocreate innovative soft robots; robots are made

Young Students, Problem Solving, and PBLFor many children educated in a traditional school setting, engineering and innovation is not adaily class offering. By the time students reach the pre-college years of high school, theopportunity to teach concepts that would make for a strong engineering candidate may havealready been missed. Li Tan concluded in “Using random forest analysis to identify studentdemographic and high school-level factors that predict college engineering major choice” that itis crucial to attract more students to college engineering programs that are prepared tosuccessfully complete the degree [1].

systematic application of inclusive teaching standards(called I-Standards) in our curriculum. The I- Standards were inspired by the approach andformat of Quality Matters, the certification system for online courses, which is adopted at theuniversity for all online classes and is supported by the university teaching center [6]. Theywere developed by a team of faculty by integrating principles of Universal Design forLearning [7], evidenced-based inclusive teaching practices and a comprehensive suite ofstudent support structures anchored by the strength-based approach. The I-standards are usedas a guide to organize the activities of the I-team, a team of instructors who attend a series ofworkshops and work together to redesign their courses.Research
