Reforming Embedded Systems Curriculum Based on Mobile Robot Platforms: Exploration and Practice of Science-Education Integration

One of such important courses in the curriculum of the electromechanical programs worldwide is Embedded systems that connect the theoretical background with the practical aspects of engineering. In response to the limitations of traditional teaching methods related to embedded systems courses, this study proposes a mobile robot platform-based integration model for science and education teaching reform. In this study, we introduce a mobile robot experimental development course based on this model, realizing an integrated teaching model that integrates theoretical teaching and practical operation, modular teaching design, project-based learning, undertaking research competitions, and completing actual engineering projects. Consequently, students' practical operation ability, innovation consciousness and overall application ability have been greatly promoted. This work not only stimulates students interest to learning, but also plays a positive role in enhancing their education outcomes, and have a wide and solid foundation for their future study and work.
