Due to the ongoingpandemic eight weeks of instruction was conducted online through synchronous class meetingsand asynchronous video recordings made available by the instructor. Students worked ondesign projects such as the robotic arm, automatic mobile camera and mobile robots. Theywere successful in preparing design plan, drawings and programming Arduino and presentedit to the instructor and rest of the class online.

The rationale for teaching these courses is that they allow students to learnnew types of skills by teaching them how to work in groups and share information. Thesecourses also provide a degree of realism, because they help students become sensitized to issuesin concurrent engineering and train them in interpersonal skills, communications, and systemintegration1.
