This course had a much smaller laboratory component and wasdesigned to expose students to real-time DSP concepts and system design trade-offs.3 Proposed FPGA DSP CurriculumHaving covered previous courses in DSP hardware design and system-level design, a refinedfixed-point DSP hardware design curriculum that uses a system design approach will be pre-sented. Teaching fixed-point hardware design is most natural within a hands-on, laboratoryenvironment where real-world obstacles

points in database design. Database design knowledgeis technical as well as practical. Many skills are required including problem-solving, critical think-ing, creativity, communication, team working, and time management. Traditionally, expositionallectures or closed and hands-on laboratories are used to teach database design. Exams are usuallyused to evaluate knowledge and skills required in the database design process. In the rest of thisarticle, we refer to such methods as traditional methods. Unfortunately, despite their wide use,traditional methods are found to be ineffective for teaching and learning the abstract and complexdomain of database design [2, 3].

This paper describes a new, inexpensive software defined radio educational platform based upon M ATLAB and the Texas Instruments C6713 dig- ital signal processing starter kit. We describe the various hardware and software issues and discuss how such a platform can be used in the classroom.1 INTRODUCTIONSoftware defined radio (SDR) is a topic that is becoming

to other platforms.ConclusionA combination of assembly and C language was used to teach the basics of microprocessorprogramming in the updated Microprocessors course at BSU, using a modern developmentenvironment (a soft processor instantiated on an FPGA with classic RISC architecture).Overlapping the teaching of both languages had a synergistic effect on educating the studentsabout microprocessors. In addition to learning how microprocessors work and control a broadrange of devices, the students learned problem-solving skills and practiced these skills withrealistic laboratory assignments and projects. Materials developed to teach the updatedMicroprocessors course are continuing to be expanded and refined.References[1] B.E. Dunne, A.J
