Abstract
This initiative seeks to tackle the difficulties encountered by Malaysian students in comprehending Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) subjects, with a specific focus on engineering. The typical curriculum's emphasis on theoretical knowledge leaves many students insufficiently equipped for the actual application of these principles. Current trends, including heightened absenteeism at pivotal evaluations such as the SPM, indicate a deterioration in academic involvement, particularly in theoretical disciplines. The project implements a 4-axis left robotic arm as an educational tool to connect STEM theory with practical application. The robotic arm prototype was developed with SolidWorks, amalgamating mechanical engineering ideas with programming notions. It was meticulously designed, produced, and assembled to guarantee both operational efficacy and pedagogical worth. This initiative offers an interactive and engaging method for students to cultivate vital STEM abilities, so enriching their educational experience and equipping them for future challenges in automation and engineering.
