with his dissertation titled, “Moving Object Predictions in Dynamic Environments for Autonomous Ground Vehicles.” Outside of his teaching duties at MAGE, Kootbally is a Senior Research Associate with the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southern California (USC) and an Associate in the Intelligent Systems Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where he recently accepted the NIST Distinguished Associate Award for “Developing an innovative simulation-based robot agility competition that has spurred breakthrough solutions to industry’s robotic challenges.” Kootbally’s current research interests are in automated robotic systems, specifically in the area of agile robotic systems. The goal of agile robotic systems is to make industrial robots smarter so they can be faster tasked/retasked and overcome unpredicted situations.

Kootbally began teaching with MAGE in 2018 when he was invited to co-teach ENPM663: Building a Manufacturing Robotic Software System (formerly known as ENPM809B) by Craig Schlenoff, who was also working at NIST.

“After seeing how much students could accomplish at the end of the first semester we taught the course, I decided to keep providing the necessary knowledge they will need in their careers,” Kootbally says.

Kootbally now teaches ENPM809E: Python Applications for Robotics and ENPM809Y: Introductory Robot Programming in addition to ENPM663, which all use Robot Operating System (ROS) and expand on building robot software. “ENPM809E teaches Python and its applications to mobile and industrial robotics using ROS. ENPM809Y teaches modern C++ and its

applications to mobile and industrial robotics using ROS. ENPM663 looks at the components of manufacturing robots, including architectures, planning/control, simulation, and measurement science. ENPM663 utilizes the Agile Robotics for Industrial Automation Competition (ARIAC), developed by NIST, as a use case. The final projects for these courses come in the form of a software which is run live at the end of the semesters.”

As for his students, Kootbally says, “I just hope the students see me as a teacher who cares about them.” He is attentive to their questions and any issues or concerns they have throughout the semester, noting that “MAGE students are very passionate and very respectful with a great desire to have real-world application experience.”

Student Chris Neil D Souza, who took ENPM809E with Kootbally in Summer 2022, certainly felt the consideration that Kootbally strove to give to each student, saying, “Professor Zeid is kind and amicable and is always ready to help us out.

His classes are fun and easy to understand. My knowledge in robotics has widened after taking his class.”

Kootbally credits his teaching success, in part, to MAGE staff. “They provide great feedback, they are very responsive, and they always support both students and teachers. Whenever I promote MAGE programs I always mention the quality of the work the staff is providing,” he says.

For the future, Kootbally is looking forward to an exciting new autonomous robot project at NIST. On-road autonomous vehicles are expected to significantly influence key aspects of everyday life. However, these complex systems can pose a safety risk in the event of unexpected system performance. NIST is working on the development of standards and performance metrics to measure many aspects of autonomous vehicles.

As for teaching, he would love to incorporate some of the state-of-the-art robots available on-campus into his coursework since so much of his teaching relies on simulations and simulated robots.

Meet Anne Bongermino,

MAGE is committed to delivering quality engineering education, and that commitment is reflected in our dedicated and knowledgeable staff. One staff member whose contributions significantly elevate the value of a MAGE education is our instructional designer, Anne Bongermino.

Instructional designers work with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to create learning events such as courses, webinars, and microlearnings. Instructional designers use their knowledge of adult learning principles, pedagogy, and educational technology to translate the SME’s expertise into a meaningful learning experience for learners.

At MAGE, Bongermino consults with faculty on their course design, including ELMS/ Canvas training and support, guidance on pedagogy, and support during course redevelopment. One of her main responsibilities as instructional designer is to meet with new faculty prior to their first semester to assist them with ELMS, answer their questions, and provide them with teaching resources.

Bongermino studied Communications with a concentration in Instructional Technology at Ithaca College. In her junior year, she participated in an internship with the eLearning department at Clarkson Graduate School, which is where she developed a true appreciation for the field, learning about how instructional designers support faculty, exploring educational technologies, and developing design skills.

Throughout the semester, Bongermino provides outstanding, ongoing support to MAGE faculty, who she is especially appreciative to work with. “MAGE faculty are passionate about their subject matter and many currently work in the industries they teach to. They have their finger on the pulse of industry news and trends and bring that insight into their curricula,” she says.

14 EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES
“I want to ensure that student voices are heard, and that faculty are given all of the tools they need to deliver quality instruction.”

“MAGE faculty are incredible experts in their fields, but the ability to translate that expertise into a course is a completely different skillset. That’s where instructional design comes in. In addition to supporting new faculty before and throughout their first semester, I review course evaluations at the end of each semester. I then make recommendations based on student feedback for future iterations of the course,” says Bongermino of the personalized support that she provides to MAGE faculty. “I want to ensure that student voices are heard, and that faculty are given all of the tools they need to deliver quality instruction.”

Looking to the future, Bongermino has great plans to further improve the handson faculty onboarding process to give instructors the tools they need to kickstart their first semester. On top of that, Bongermino is looking for ways to promote more active, hands-on learning, drawing on faculty projects and case studies to give students a chance to apply their new knowledge to real-world examples. Says Bongermino, “Not only is active learning pedagogically sound, we also know from course evaluations that students appreciate the opportunity to dig into course material in meaningful ways—we are an applied program after all!”
