The work of Schon, Dewey, Moon, and Rogersform our theoretical foundation and we used their ideas as a lens to interpret student reflections.Prior WorkVandegrift et. al.

. Robotic design is currentlynot yet well represented in undergraduate academic programs.In order to prepare our computer engineering students for the robot design experience which canbe considered as a complex embedded systems design, we offer two courses on embeddedsystems. However, these two courses on embedded systems design are not enough to teach thestudents the skills that they need. In order to satisfy the ABET requirements students incomputer engineering program are required to take a capstone course. The projects that studentsdo in this capstone course are embedded projects. This paper describes a robotic project that astudent has done in this capstone course.IntroductionWikipedia defines a robot as [1] “ a machine—especially one

While this approach may provide alaboratory experience, the research experience is greatly dependent on the research laboratoryand the research advisor. The significant increase in expected students performingundergraduate honors research also suggests that a group mentoring approach may be required inorder not to require additional time from the research mentors. In an effort to improve theundergraduate research experience, we will be initiating an Engineering Honors ResearchMethods course for the undergraduate Honors students during the Spring 2020 semester as a pre-requisite for

portion of a mechatronics device intotheir projects.I. IntroductionMechatronic devices and products are characterized by the integration of sensors, actuators andelectronic control technologies in mechanical systems. The result is the potential for enhancedfunctionality and a degree of smartness and adaptability in the mechatronic system. Theunderlying philosophy of mechatronics is to incorporate the aforementioned elements at theonset of design, envisioning optimal functionality of the device in its earliest stages ofdevelopment.A unique program in mechatronics education at the undergraduate level has recently beenimplemented for mechanical engineering students at Kettering University1,2. The need to do sohas been clearly dictated by an emphasis

The project has required students to perform abroad range of engineering activities, and to document their work well enough for succeedingclasses to continue the work. The goal of the project was to create an autonomous aerial robotusing a commercially available GPS receiver as its sole sensor. The single sensor arrangementhas two main advantage : low cost and ability for miniaturization. Miniaturization is animportant goal for groups like armed force, whose desire for a backpackable unmanned vehicleslead to the DARPA MAV program, which created aircraft no larger than 6 inches in anydimension and required

Thus, continuing the support for including BIMapplications in the respective Construction Management classes. This is specifically the casewith Primavera Software, where BIM applications may be used and can be integrated for betterunderstanding and visualization of a project schedule into a Project Planning and Schedulingclass. Therefore, a real-world case scenario of a project schedule can be better understood on thejob-site and executed in a more efficient way.Multiple scheduling tools such as Primavera, MS Project, Suretrack

In additionto the basic concept of the annotated outline, we will describe a framework that we use to help usorganize the information into a cohesive structure that helps students assimilate the informationfor personal application. An Overview of the Annotated Outline Rather than developing a separate study guide, we chose to place learning related informationin the course outline rather than in a supplemental study guide so
