Abstract:
The summary of our experience conducting a hand-on course, titled "The Introduction to Robotics" with a Lego-based laboratory, is given here. We discuss the importance of using video clips, live demo, lab visits, and regular competitions in teaching robotics. Our experience showed that through a combination of teaching and hands-on lab, the students acquire system design skills and improved understanding of important physical concepts, algorithms, and coding methods that apply to the vast field of engineering.
