The physical system of a ball on a beam is simple yet allows forexploring a wide range of control topics from the stabilization of a feedback loop, disturbancerejection, digital sampling delay effects, backlash, friction compensation, to observer-based controldesign. Advanced topics on such as linear quadratic regulators, model predictive control, adaptivecontrol, and non-linear control can be covered using the same hardware in a second controlscourse.Experience from two semesters of offering the course shows that remote

set of labs was designed to becompleted in a 4- to 6-week time frame assuming 2 scheduled lab sessions per week. This shorttime frame allows students to participate in more advanced robotics projects and additionalmodules in the course.When students were asked in a survey (n =11) to rate the effectiveness of the Dobot robothardware system, the response average was 4.0 (5=excellent, 4=good, 3=average, 2=belowaverage, 1=poor). When asked to rate the effectiveness of using MATLAB and ROS software toprogram the Dobot robot arm and accessories, the student response average was 4.5. The ratedeffectiveness of the computer vision component was 4.4 (average score), and the effectiveness ofthe labs to train students in ROS services and ROS technology

students to do meaningful learning activities and think about whatthey are doing.” [3] Active learning has been shown to increase student understanding andreduce class failure rates in STEM courses. [4]An active learning environment with student-centered learning is better suited to practiceproblem-solving and develop conceptual understanding. [5] Standards are shifting to becomemore focused on developing student’s ability to problem solve rather than completecomputational calculations. For example, the Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practiceincludes the following: “reason abstractly and quantitatively, construct viable arguments andcritique the reasoning of others, and model with mathematics.” [6] The ability to reason andapply the tools

Thequestionnaire was repeated for three subsequent, annual cohorts (n=30, 31, and 40, respectively),and analyzed per question. Shortcomings were identified as an average performance less than70%.
