IntroductionRobotics is becoming one of the most attractive majors in the Colleges of Technology because ofthe advantages in respect of applications, jobs, and prospects. Therefore, more and more Collegesof Technology have or are planning to create robotics program. Usually, as an interdisciplinaryfield, the robotics programs are provided by either Computer Engineering Technology or MET.However, students of Engineering Technology, especially MET, are facing two dilemmas whenproviding robotics courses:(1) Technology programs mainly focus on hands-on skills and there are fewer fundamentalrobotics-related courses in the MET curriculum than in electrical engineering

onlineeducation offers a variety of resources and focuses primarily on teaching the fundamentaltheories and concepts, one disadvantage is the lack of hands-on experience and direct interaction[1]. Particularly in engineering education, where abstract engineering concepts ideally can bebetter understood by doing the related hands-on activities such as laboratory experiments. Tosolve the issue of the practical training shortage and the lack of hands-on experience with onlineeducation, VR takes the learning experience to a next level in terms of interaction andengagement. VR refers to an artificial world that replicates the real world environment generatedby computers, and that simulates the physical presence of a user in the virtual environment [2].With the

Therefore, the curriculum ofengineering education must match the needs to resolve real-world sophisticated and authenticproblems. Moreover, the curriculum of engineering education needs to cultivate students’capability not only of deep perspective to a particular problem but also divergent thinking.This view is supported by the theory of Conceptual Learning and Development (CLD), whichsuggests that taught theoretical concepts should be linked to related engineering problems 2.With the rapid change in the structure of the competitive market, those talents who arecapable of embarking on independent design and skillful in innovation

Wehave implemented a prototype web app, CONSIDER, based on our approach and used it in twoComputer Science and Engineering courses: a graduate level theory of programming languagescourse, and an undergrad principles of programming languages course. It was very well received,with 15 out of 22 students in the grad course, and 13 out of 21 students in the undergrad courseindicating, in a post-discussion survey, that the approach provided them a better

Therefore, devising an efficienteducational pedagogy for the robotics classes of the MET program is desirable.In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems, a project-based pedagogy for the roboticsprogram is devised and implemented in the Department of MET. There are three levels of roboticscourses ranging from ‘introduction’, ‘application’ to ‘advanced’. A series of projectscorresponding to different levels are designed and then are assigned to students. The students learnand practice the fundamental theories

Although the students will have seen the technicalconcepts needed to complete the work and have been exposed to design tools in earlier courses,for many, this will be the first time applying their engineering design skills
