Following the broad outline of Active Student Participation theory, we propose a pedagogical approach CAR targeted toward education of new researchers in the Autonomous Vehicles area. CAR combines Creativity theory, Applied demo-oriented learning, and Real world research context. Furthermore, we report on applying the approach to stimulate learning and engagement in a master's course, in which students freely created a demo with 10 small robots running ROS2 and Ubuntu on Raspberry Pis, in connection to an ongoing research project and a real current problem (SafeSmart project and COVID-19). The results suggested the feasibility of the CAR approach for enabling learning, as well as mutual benefits for both the students and researchers involved.
