The projectalso involved two M.S. level graduate students with limited swarm robotics experience. Thegraduate students played dual roles as near-peer mentors (for helping new students gettingaround campus and lab facilities) and as research team participants. Therefore, heterogeneousstudent teams were purposefully assembled so that participants had diverse knowledge /experience levels and diverse backgrounds (e.g., race, social-economic, majors).The project included ten weeks of on-campus robotics research experience.

. Educators worldwide wereimpelled to devise strategies and innovative ways to minimize the impact of the pandemic onstudent learning [6]. The most popular approach was to deliver the courses remotely to studentsto avoid community spread. A plethora of teaching pedagogies have been investigated byresearchers in the past, especially in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics areassuch as active learning, flipped classroom, online discussion groups, and peer mentoring [7-12].Students were also forced to adapt to the continuously changing teaching methodologies as therewere strict regulations on in-person interactions. Online instruction has been proven to beeffective for teaching theoretical knowledge [13]. However, courses involving

As a pedagogical tool, designnotebooks have been shown to be essential in the area of design, as they are valuable toolsthat aid in reflection, documentation, and brainstorming, as the simple act of writing andrecording thoughts is a critical component of meaning-making [4], [7]. Design notebookshave the ability to enhance student learning through their various pedagogical and cognitivebenefits [7]. Additional studies have examined the distinction between process-based andproduct-based design notebooks and their respective impact in the classroom
