of the SHRP2. Thestudents were given bonus points for attempting these modules. All students of that class viewedthe video even though it was a bonus. The research team has made a significant effort to incorporate SHRP2 products as an inherentpart of the CEE courses. To build upon previous success and strengthen the vertical integrationmethod, the research team (1) Continued existing practice by teaching relevant SHRP2 productsimmediately after the relevant theoretical content; (2) Expanded offering of flipped classroommodel to the other five courses; and (3) Evaluated the feasibility of transferring the verticalintegration method by (a) collaborating with other institutions and (b) Integrating selected modulesin the National Summer

Modern Robotics book is used to calculate the position of the Robot tip given the jointangles. The actual position of the Robot is measured and compared to the calculated position todetermine the accuracy of the Robot [7].Lab 3 introduces the main features of the V-REP Simulator: a) Scene Objects b) Calculation Modules c) Control MechanismsThe model browser comes with a wide variety of Robot models both mobile and non-mobile.The students are provided V-REP scripts that demonstrate the major features of V-REPSimulator [8].The LUA programming language is also introduced to the students. The students write and runsome simple LUA programs such as “Hello World”.Inverse Kinematics is at the center of Lab 4a using first V-REP and then
