The purpose of the course was three-fold: (a) help students makea good transition to college; (b) introduce students to engineering; and (c) prepare students forthe engineering curriculum by teaching them a number of basic skills.The online aspects of the course are delivered using PathFinder, a website developed at theuniversity. The course chapters are given in the PathFinder Plan Tab shown in Figure 1.Semester projects are used to reinforce course topics. Students work on the project during the labperiod.

Students didn’t have any numerical computing experience at the start of thecourse. Moreover, it has been observed that simulation results provide a set of known-good,expected results, which makes debugging analog circuitry much easier.ConclusionsAfter several years of teaching communications courses with a simulation component, we havedeveloped a list of common pitfalls that students face, as well as exercises designed to helpstudents avoid them and learn in the most efficient manner. We have presented a summary ofthese observations in this paper. We believe that simulation will continue to play an increasinglyimportant
