Instead of diving deep intocomplex mathematics or programming, the module emphasizes the use of accessible AI tools, such ascomputer vision (CV), natural language processing (NLP), and reinforcement learning (RL), to solveengineering problems. By embedding the module into the robotics curriculum, students gain hands-onexperience applying AI to real-world challenges, preparing them for AI-driven roles in engineering. Thispaper details the design and implementation of the module, explores the challenges of adapting AIeducation for MET students, and discusses strategies to bridge gaps in their technical knowledge.

practices, one goal of the published cards shouldbe transferability- could another faculty member use the documented ideas and resources at theirown institution? Unfortunately, not every card is a useful resource for adaptation. Some cardslack details or additional uploads of lesson plans, leaving readers looking for more information.Other cards lack clear indications of what the activity entails, or how much time it will take.Additionally cards can be thoroughly well documented, but may be less adaptable because theycontain too much information. As an example, many cards provide details on an entire coursethat has been modified to meet some of the entrepreneurial mindset competencies. However,unless a university plans to design a new course or
