MethodologyThe study will utilize a bibliometric analysis to determine the current temporal and spatialtendencies of diversity and inclusion within systems engineering education publishing.Bibliometric analysis is an established and assiduous technique for scrutinizing vast quantities oftechnical data to realize emerging patterns for a particular topic. A bibliometric analysis mayuncover emerging article trends, publication performance, collaboration patterns, researchelements, and explore the intellectual structure of a specific realm within the existing literature[4]. This study hypothesizes that both diversity and inclusion research within systems engineeringeducation is increasing. The bibliometric approach consists of querying academic databases

The goal for the engineering students was to build new interprofessional skills, whilereinforcing technical skills. The collaborative activities included: (1) training with HummingbirdBitTM hardware (e.g. sensors, servo motors) and coding platform, (2) preparing robotics lessonsfor fifth graders that explained the engineering design process (EDP), and (3) guiding the fifthgraders in the design of their robots. Additionally, each undergraduate engineering studentdesigned a robot following the theme developed with their preservice teacher and fifth gradepartners. The intervention

Furthermore, some studies have described how robots can nurture students’skills in team collaboration and technical communication [30-32]. In summary, the number ofrobotics-related educational research studies has experienced a steady increase [33-35].Nonetheless, thus far, only a few studies have focused on developing and integrating real-worldcase scenarios when applying educational robotics in classrooms. This paper will specificallyaddress how robotics laboratories and projects can be used in first-year engineering education tohelp students develop teamwork skills. The outcome of the study
