Edison V2 SetFigure 5. Cost Analysis: Cost of currently available products in comparison to the WitBot (when assembling 10) in USDThe cost of educational robots varies greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer due to variancein componentry, software design, and modularity. Despite this wide range of prices, the WitBotis still able to come in at a low cost compared to many of the main products on the market whilestill retaining functionality such as including multiple sensors like a line finder and an ultrasonicsensor as well as integrating a visual coding interface.ConclusionThis paper presented a small, affordable, open-source educational

Specifically, this section focuses on theselection of the rotator, antenna, and software used in the operation of the ground station.4.3.1 Design ConsiderationsFor a ground station design to be accepted and ubiquitous in aerospace education, the groundstation design must satisfy the following design considerations: low-cost and reliable. In thissection, the development of the ground station was conducted to meet those criteria whileallowing it to accomplish the learning objectives. Specifically, the ground station must below-cost and easily acquired, and it needs to be a tested design that can be operated by students.The key features needed in a ground station to satisfy the learning objectives are that the

The game is developedbased on a design of geothermal piles which represent an innovative and sustainablegeotechnical solution to the global climate change issue. Virtual reality is applied to visualizethe field environments (e.g., geomaterials, ground conditions, and sampling), laboratoryconditions (e.g., technician, testing devices, and tools), and design components for structuralsimulation (i.e., finite element software). The gameplay is story-based and task-driven toengage students with geotechnical concepts in a pleasant way. Several mini-games have

tools are designed to teach, rather than to complete professional analyses.I stress this difference because it is possible to use professional software tools in a similarmanner. Worksheets can be designed using commercial software that will serve some of thesame functions. However, these tools are typically not designed to be educational. It is necessaryto strike a balance between how much effort is spent teaching the use of a tool itself and howmuch effort is spent teaching the actual course theory.This dilemma can be resolved either by choosing software that is so easy to learn or of suchcritical professional value that it is valuable to incorporate its use into the curriculum. Thatchoice is a very personal one for each instructor. There are

The strengths of the technology play well to two educational approaches: (1)focused multimedia mini-lectures, which students can review at their discretion, and (2)case studies in the form of mini-documentaries. Both approaches serve well asmotivational tools in the PEL learning cycle, and could resuscitate sagging studentinterest in reading textbooks. As such, they should be designed as one component in abalanced course offering, not as a class substitute.The development time is a clear obstacle. In addition to the production and post-production time requirements, there are considerable time requirements in mastering adiverse set of supporting skills: software applications, web authoring, script writing,videography, sound, and lighting
