The pedagogy of a first-year engineering course in manufacturing is presented. This course entitled Manufacturing and Society involves collaboration with social science, is based on industrial robots as the central theme to attract students' interests and utilizes the flipped classroom approach for delivery. We hypothesize that, in one semester, recent high school graduates will be able to gain knowledge in manufacturing by learning the computer-aided engineering (CAD) software, applying CAD to design a penholder, fabricating the penholder using additive manufacturing and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software, programming the robot to create a toolpath for the pen, drawing using the pen on the penholder guided by a robot, and elaborating on impacts of robotic painting on society from a social science perspective. This course is designed to give students, regardless of their intended major in engineering, broad knowledge in manufacturing via 10 engineering, 3 social science, and 10 technical communication lectures;8 labs;and 4 projects. The social science lectures and discussions focus on how knowledge about society can be used to inform design and manufacturing decisions, social science research methods for understanding how engineers and technology can impact people's lives, and changing trends in work, the workplace, and the future workforce as it relates to manufacturing. This course aimed to give undergraduate first- year engineering students a positive view of advanced manufacturing and its impact on society. Student evaluations and comments were positive and affirmed the learning objective of teaching manufacturing to the first-year engineering students. The flipped classroom approach was demonstrated to be ideal during the COVID-19 pandemic with limited capacity for in-person lectures and labs. The use of flipped classrooms allowed students to learn at their own pace, review and reinforce knowledge, have a closer interaction with instructors, and reduce

Learner's engagement is a continuous desideratum whose main purpose is to enhance academic achievements and subsequently the development of hard and soft skills. Increasingly, gamification techniques were adopted to embody manifold in-class activities and tasks. Indeed, it intends to promote enjoyment and positive perception for participants during learning activities. Thus, gamification principles may empower instructors to promote understanding, to reinforce knowledge acquisition and retention, stimulating the development of skills and competencies prone to produce learner's' intrinsically behavioral changes. This study aims to describe the agile development life cycle of a computerized gamified badge-based reward system encompassed by a myriad of elements, such as: mobile app, website, Firebase database, and Firebase API. On the one hand, the benefits and challenges of agile methodologies are presented. On the other hand, the merits of the following architecture which combined front and back-end is also highlighted

Random sample partition (RSP) is a big data representation and management model to deal with big data approximate computation problems. Academic research and practical applications have confirmed that RSP is an efficient solution for big data processing and analysis. However, a challenge for implementing RSP is determining an appropriate sample size for RSP data blocks, since a large sample size increases the burden of big data computation, a small size will lead to insufficient big data calculation accuracy. To address this problem, this paper proposes a novel block size estimate and block number estimate algorithm to determine the optimal block size and block number. First, the theoretical lower bounds on the data block size and the number of blocks are derived based on the coreset theory and Hoeffding's inequality. Second, the quantization error between the sample and the entire data set is calculated based on the symmetrization principle, and the sample size is gradually increased through iterative sampling until the quantization error reaches the set threshold. Finally, a series of experiments are conducted to verify the feasibility, rationality and effectiveness of the algorithm. Experimental results show that our algorithm is able to effectively determine the sample block size and number of sample blocks for a given data set, enabling efficient execution of data parallel applications.
