It begins with two-persondesign teams that design, build and test weekly projects involving LEGO® parts, sensors, and theRobotic Command eXplorer (RCX). The course progresses in the semester to finally encompasslarger design teams of fourteen students, with each team designing a complex, autonomous, robotic-styled system. This revision was to enable a more flexible mix of engineering student majors(Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental), as some departments had different enrollmentsfor each semester.

Project-basedlearning involves assignments that call for students to produce something, such as a process orproduct design. The culmination of the project is normally a written or oral report summarizingwhat was done and what the outcome was. Dym, et al. say that project-based learning hasproduced many innovations in design pedagogy in engineering education.11 Research suggeststhat these kinds of courses appear to improve retention, student satisfaction, diversity, andstudent learning. In problem-based learning, students, usually working in teams, are confrontedwith an ill-structured open ended real-world problem to solve, and take the lead in defining theproblem
