Abstract:	This article presents an account of the authors' experience on the preparation, implementation, and follow-up of active learning workshops for motivating the learning in robotics. The active learning strategies used range from “flipped classroom” and “guided practice” to “hands-on" and collaborative learning. The target audience of the workshops are undergraduate students that are going to replicate these workshops, under professor's supervision, to high school students, intending to introduce projects in robotics as tools for studies in math and physics. The workshops format is similar to the final desired structure: three days with two of these days committed to learning concepts and skills that will be employed on the third day dedicated to building a robotic car toy. The theme of the first day is "3D Modelling and Printing", with an introduction to modelling using CAD software to prototype a piece. On the second day, the theme approached is "Arduino Programming Workshop". Finally, on the last day, the students consolidate the knowledge gathering the information obtained during the previous workshops to build, program, and test the robotic car toy. The third workshop was applied for testing in two small groups of undergraduate students and the results were obtained for further improvements. In this article, the impact of the workshops on engineering student's education is described. The technical and not technical knowledge and skills reported by the authors include learn how to prepare lesson plans, additional experience in the workshop themes, communication skills improvement, in other words, the author’s self-development process is discussed and related to the results of the workshop.
