Abstract

This work describes the design of an iterative learning approach to teach about basic concepts in autonomous and control systems for novice engineering students. The Learning Continuum approach builds on three theoretical principles: Zone of Proximal Development, Selective Exposure, and Concrete before Abstract. The resulting curriculum unit consists of two iterations of the same lesson. The first focuses more on the underlying concepts using tools that avoid the low-level complexities of typical microcontrollers. The second iteration then uses microcontrollers to explore the learned ideas. We tested this framework with 217 novice engineering students against a control group consisting of 111 students. Results from a range of data collected shows that this approach helps students during the learning process. Instructors also sees benefits of the learning continuum approach and has adopted the curriculum for regular use in their course.
