Bridging the Gap: Sensor-Based Automation Across Grade Levels
Abstract:
This research explores how to bridge the gap between high school robotics & automation courses and collegiate industrial automation courses. The expectation is that a firm understanding of sensor-based automation in high school better prepares students for college-level topics such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and instrumentation.
