These educational robotsare typical six-axis short arm industrial robots and are relatively easy to integrate and learn how touse. The robots are capable of demonstrating several industrial applications and allow for futureintegration of a vision system and other field input devices. This hardware is essential for thisconcentration because it provides hands-on equipment for the students and offers an active courseapproach. The programming of the robot is completed by using the teach pendant. The five majorparts of a robot includes the controller, manipulator, end

One additional goal was thecreation of a library of concept maps for CLABS. In addition, at the beginning of each semester,the Lab Management team and faculty offer a two-day laboratory assistant orientation workshop.Topics such as teaching techniques, safety procedures, professional etiquette, and organization oflaboratories were covered during the workshops.

The program morphed from the initial conceptto a “3 + 1” program where students study for three years at SHNU, followed by one calendaryear (three semesters) at UD.Teaching in higher education is quite different between China and the United States. Tocontinue development of the program, SHNU annually sends faculty to UD for a semester tolearn about teaching and student learning in the United States. Additionally, UD annually sendsfaculty to teach at SHNU for a 4-5 week period to help prepare students for learning technicalcourses in English, and to better prepare them for learning at an American institution.Today, over 100 students in six cohorts have completed the joint program

We are using a combination of instructional systems and “Backwards Approach(BA)” to re-design UV curricula.BA design6,7 is a method of designing curriculum by choosing learning outcomes beforeinstructional methods or assessments. This means one chooses the outcome of the learningexperience first, and let’s that guide the teaching/learning and the assessment/evaluation. Thismethod challenges "traditional" methods of curriculum planning in which a list of contentthat will be taught is created and/or selected first and teaching/assessment methodologyusually are lectures and laboratories, with written exams as assessment of learning.
