The design of the RTB and PRC are described in detail to provide an accessible pathwayfor learners and educators. The RTB, PRC, and the accompanying experiments allow students tograsp the fundamentals of Python while interacting with various actuators and sensors.The RTB and PRC were developed to support the laboratory of a new course, MXET 250 (RoboticSystems Design) for the Multidisciplinary Engineering Technology (MXET

Lastly, structural engineering coursesrequired for both CEEN and AEEN students are traditionally cross-linked and taught as a singlecourse (due to limited number of faculty). These courses are not differentiated in Table 1.Examples of course modules include: • CEEN / AEEN 3303 (Structural Analysis) teaches students to calculate the effects of external loads on structural components. Key to student success in advanced structural design and capstone courses is development of a systemic view of a structure and the ability to specify ultimate structural demands. Use of loading standards increases students’ conceptualization
