Abstract

This paper tackled the issues of different learning preferences for Computer Science and Mechatronics students in a large class environment by using different active learning methodologies. Apart from implementing active learning methods in the class, another idea present here is coupling with another course. The efforts required and the effectiveness for these methods are being presented, with this the suitable methods can be selected depending on the participants and the resources available.
