models lacks thepotential of incorporating communication skills and encouraging self-reflection [3]. Thus, thesetraditional methodologies fail to associate the sought-after engineering skills with practicalapplications, which impedes the role of engineering education in preparing students for their futurecareers [4].This issue led educators to adopt project-based learning methodologies that reinforce the students’engineering skill sets and enhance their learning experience. Educators started incorporatingmodern courseware, like modular engineering demonstrators, into the engineering educationcurriculum [5] [6]. They started using modular demonstrators as pedagogical tools in coordinationwith traditional techniques to improve the students

Basic EMC concepts (two classes): EMC definition; basic four coupling mechanisms; EMC problems on printed circuit boards (PCBs); EMC standards. ii. Transmission line basics for EMC (three classes): Transmission line parameters and equations; transmission line loss; transmission line on the non-ideal ground; reflection at the discontinuity (including resistive discontinuity and reactive discontinuity

general, when a tensor of rank r > 1 operates on atensor of rank p < r, the result is a new tensor of rank r − p.The algebraic and geometric approaches are mathematically equivalent in that they yield the samecomputational results and it is straightforward to deduce the transformation rule (1) from thegeometric definition [3]. It is perhaps a reflection of human psychology, then, that the academiccommunity has become so staunchly divided between the two approaches. Indeed, the rift datesback to the formulation of relativity theory. According to Norton [12], In Einstein’s hands, Lorentz covariance was a purely algebraic property.

timeframesestablished by the institution. Identifying student progress and outcomes for learning andteaching has long been a source of contention. Outcome-based education models emphasizestudent learning through actions that reflect competencies in the use of skills, content, ideas,information, and tools [18], [20]. This model differed from the traditional model in that it wasmore focused on students than on teaching methods and delivery systems. For example, in anoutcome-based model, teaching methods change dynamically in response to the student's skilland abilities rather than a fixed timeframe and schedule.Competency-based Education (CBE) Model is the next step in this movement [18].
