Instrumentation (anElectrical Engineering course) and Software Maintenance and Reengineering from ComputerSciences and Software Engineering department collaborated on five Internet of Things (IoT)projects. The collaboration has revealed both challenges and positive outcomes. This paperdescribes the collaboration, the students’ feedback and lessons learned. 1. IntroductionEngineering projects have become complex in the 20th century and require multiple teams fromdifferent disciplines to work collaboratively to solve problems. Collaboration betweenmultidisciplinary teams has become a standard in industries; however, educational curricula havebeen slow to adapt. Although most engineering programs have a capstone design course as a partof their curricula
andimportant to today’s engineers. However, Frankenstein is rarely discussed in technical classes.This paper discusses a design project for first-year Mechanical Engineering students that askedstudents to select and explore themes from Frankenstein as a guide for the design of anautonomous robot. In essence, the students were required to develop a target customer that wouldbenefit from the theme they selected. The use of the novel to generate concepts for the robotswas supported by using a form of double column notes. This processes required the students toselect several quotes from the book as inspiration for concept generation. Students sketched therobot ideas and explained the connection between the quote from the book and the concept. The

course design project – a wearableelectrocardiograph with a Bluetooth Low Energy link to a cell phone. Student performance wasassessed relative to learning objectives specified for the scripted laboratories and the coursedesign project. Pre/post-project surveys were also employed to gauge student self-perceptions oflearning in specific technical areas germane to biomedical instrumentation. Student feedback andsummative assessments indicate that Analog Discovery 2 toolsets are an effective, arguablyenjoyable, resource when applied in such an upper-level course, as they help students to meetlearning objectives and gain technical proficiency without adding an undue burden to thelearning process.I.
