“…This challenge is even more serious for ET programs, since ET students typically prefer hands-on learning and they may not like to dive deep into learning abstract concepts and theoretic materials. Several educators tried to use practical applications and simulation tools to enhance student learning in control systems courses [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] . Others found that laboratories and course projects are important ingredients that can help students make the connection between the dry and abstract math concepts and practical applications [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] .…”

Control Systems" is an important course for Engineering Technology programs. An easy mistake to make in teaching the course is spending too much time in covering complex mathematical theory and solving theoretical problems. The applications of control system theory in applied research and capstone courses are sometimes overlooked by the instructors.Overall, the integration of research and teaching in this case helped the faculty members' research. At the same time, it benefitted the students in their learning in the Control Systems course as well as further learning through capstone courses. This approach of combining research and teaching can make the faculty members more productive as well as to make students to be more engaged in learning.

Dr. Krauss received his Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Georgia Tech in 2006. His research interests include modeling and control design for flexible robots, feedback control, and microcontroller-based implementation of feedback control systems. In addition to the freshmen introduction to engineering design course, he has taught courses in mechatronics, controls, vibrations, dynamics and robotics as well as senior design.

“…We are building on prior work by others using active learning [6][7][8][9][10][11], PjBL [12][13][14][15][16][17], worked examples [18][19][20], Jupyter notebooks [21,22], agile software development methods [23][24][25], as well as existing IoT course materials [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44]. However, the existing mechatronics course materials with IoT tend to target Electrical Engineering (EE) and Computer Science (CS) students and the creation of underlying IoT technologies, especially low-level software.…”
