In Cali we had around 30 students, and in Medellín we had around 60 students. I was responsible for 30% of the lectures in the course, where we gave some examples in the areas of Foraging Theory and Stability Analysis. I gave a talk on the Ideal Free Distributions for Distributed Control, and also I gave an overview of the International Educational Laboratory Development for Feedback Control Engineering and Automation program. This program has a strong emphasis on very low-cost designs that do not sacrifice educational goals for both undergraduate and graduate programs.
