“…3b yields for Ag NWs α 293 ¼(0.0025 70.0001) K À 1 , a slight improvement with respect to the bulk value (0.0038 K À 1 ) [27]. This small reduction of α 293 can be attributed to a strain effect [28] caused by the mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients at the NW/substrate interface [29]. Other possible mechanisms that could potentially reduce α 293 are associated with localized heat treatment of the NW material via electron beam during the contacting process [30].…”

“…3b). This regime can be described by the expression [28] ρ T ð Þ ¼ ρ 293 1 þ α 293 ðT À T 0 Þ ½ with α 293 being the temperature coefficient of resistivity and ρ 293 the NW resistivity, both taken at T 0 ¼293 K. Linear fitting of the data in Fig. 3b yields for Ag NWs α 293 ¼(0.0025 70.0001) K À 1 , a slight improvement with respect to the bulk value (0.0038 K À 1 ) [27].…”

“…In lectures and labs, students were exposed to a variety of common types of 'software building blocks' or program constructs, 6 commonly used circuit 'building blocks', [7][8][9][10] input and display devices, sensors, actuators, software control methods and 'common skills' often used in the fields of embedded controller design, instrumentation, mobile robotics and motion control. The lectures and labs were designed to help students to learn and demonstrate important principles, common devices, hardware and software design skills and good development and troubleshooting practices that are useful for their future careers as product and system designers.…”

This paper describes how students can be guided to become their own best teachers, able to test their newly acquired skills with only minimum or no direct assistance from an instructor or lecturer. 'Closed-loop' student-centred learning and problem-based learning approaches are described, involving weekly lectures and hands-on lab activities that keep students highly curious, motivated and engaged in self-regulated learning. Students are required to design and test their own original circuits and software code by modifying, extending or expanding the sample circuits and example code described in the lecture notes, in order to complete and demonstrate specific objectives or requirements for each weekly lab session. These 'closed-loop' student-centred learning labs ensure that all teams of students achieve a common or minimum acceptable level of practical skills, which adequately prepares them for a 'design-and-build' competition. This style of learning also helps develop generic life-long learning skills such as investigating and identifying problems (problem definition and analysis), independent research and experimentation, decision making, communication and teamwork. Even without any prior hands-on experience with electronic circuit design, programming and microcontrollers, each team of students was able to apply and demonstrate new knowledge and skills, devise and test original designs for circuits and software without any supervision, solve and fix complex problems successfully and confidently, and build an operational remote-controlled electric vehicle or mobile robot for a final competition. Some went even further and built sensor-guided fully autonomous mobile robots. Three different competitions described in this paper include a timed racing car competition, a multi-player box grabbing contest over a
