Abstract

The robotics stream of the University of TorontoDEEP summer program consistently attracts numer-ous motivated high school students. As instructors,we have developed an extensible low cost platformthat students can construct and enhance over asequence of courses. The platform provides anengaging medium to address many aspects of elec-trical, computer and mechanical engineering whilemaintaining a robotics theme. These include thetheory of electromagnetism, analog and digitalcircuits, software development and ultimately basicmachine learning. Students surveys conducted at thebeginning and end of each course were used to gaugestudent engagement and knowledge before and afterthe courses and provide evidence that the roboticsthemed approach is an eective method for teachinga broad spectrum of engineering material.
