Course for Engineering StudentsAbstractFor Spring 2011, a senior-level robotics course (first taught in Spring 2010) had been revisedaccording to principles for “Smart Teaching” described in the book “How Learning Works”.Homework, laboratory sessions and anchor projects had been redesigned to provide betterscaffolding for students with 2 different but complementary engineering backgrounds, and alsofor a better flow towards the theme of humanoid robotics. The e-portfolio tool EMMA wasintegrated into this course as a collaboration and feedback tool between instructor and students tohelp improve student algorithm development work, but EMMA was not found to be responsiveenough nor useful for this kind of use.IntroductionIn the Summer 2010, the

leveraged in such a way that the students produce, as a final project, anengaging, interactive demonstration of a basic ECE concept; many of thesedemonstrations have already found their way into the classroom in other courses. Theresult is a course with dual, complementary goals: teaching Java-based programmingconcepts and developing computer-enhanced educational courseware.I. MotivationEngineering topics, especially those in Electrical and Computer Engineering, are oftentaught by first presenting the underlying equations and then, by exploring thoseequations, revealing the topic’s fundamental principles. This approach, while common,has the unfortunate effect of postponing intuitive understanding of the topic until wellinto the process, when the

The solar car project gave our students aunique learning experience in areas such as Engineering Mechanics, Machine Design andcomposite fabrication. It also provided an opportunity to apply their theoreticalknowledge to practical situations, gain hands-on experience, and at the same time, getcredit for their work. The project has been a great success and we are looking forward tocompeting in the race in June, 97.

PBL is a pedagogical model in which students are the centerof the learning process. Students become the active learner who connect domain knowledge toreal-world challenging problems, and work collaboratively toward their solutions. The instructorprovides resources and mentorship to students on how to tackle the problem, not the solutiondirectly. The major advantages of PBL include deepening students’ critical thinking, stimulatingstudents

The idea behind this project was to create a system that receives a feed ofdata from people’s cars which will be turned into feedback to drivers so they can drivemore efficiently. In turn, this will allow them to save money on gas, drive more safely,and be more environmentally friendly. We were able to build on this by going throughthe customer discovery process. We conducted about 40 interviews with potentialcustomers. We created customer segments based off of these interviews anddeveloped a minimum viable product (MVP).
