Instructors in higher education consider various ways of integrating creativity and innovation into thecourses they teach to better prepare students for their future careers [4]. Study shows that between the twocommonly-used approaches that enhance creativity, i.e., teaching vs. practice creativity, stimulatingcreativity by practices is considered to be more effective [5]. In addition, many professors used project-based learning [6, 7] when trying to foster creativity in their courses [8, 9].Due to robotics’ multi-disciplinary nature, we think
