Abstract In recent years, the authors have described various classroom-proven DSP teaching tools that have helped motivate students and faculty to implement real-time DSP-based systems to enhance education. These efforts have emphasized the theme that DSP is much more than just a collection of theories and problem solving techniques, and that hands-on experience with hardware is extremely beneficial for both mastering concepts and retaining students. In addition to facilitating the education of numerous engineers and engineering students, these tools have also allowed us to reach out into our local communities and encourage future college students to consider studying engineering. This paper describes

exhibits. Benefits of employing virtual world simulation tools include rapidprototyping, low-cost development and delivery, collaboration, and access to aninternational community. An interactive robotics exhibit in the area of mobile robotprogramming education has been constructed and deployed in the virtual world. Asecond exhibit to enable 3D human-robot interaction studies has also been established.Student access, involvement, and collaboration in the virtual robotics exhibits have beensuccessful. Simulations developed in 3D virtual worlds, such as Second Life, can serveas a highly accessible virtual laboratory and can support a variety of educational andresearch objectives in the area of mobile robotics and human-robot interactions.1

This was supported by theadaptive nature of this course, which is continually redesigned to maintain its relevance in thearea of technology. Thus, new technology components are implemented every two years, whilemaintaining the historical elements of industry practices that do not waiver, such as the history ofthe Internet and Circuitry.The course under examination not only contains a lecture component, but a hands-on computerlab component, which include the simulations.

fundamental to its creation, the teaching anddelivery of the course will determine the ultimate success. This is one of the first engineeringcourses that students take during their college careers, so it is important to engage the students inlearning about their discipline. However this engagement must be done in a way that permitsmultiple instructors and multiple sections to be taught to offer uniformity in computingexperiences. One way to engage the student is using in-class assignments and exercises. We refer Page 13.772.3to these as “in-class labs” to convey the laboratory nature of these exercises.Essentially, the course (TE/ISE 110) revolves

” is a somewhat vague, but critical, teaching goal.Intuition is often described as subconsciously following a set of rules,1-3 developed throughexperience, and leads to better decisions in complex situations.4 In the Dreyfus model,progressing from novice (thoughtlessly following the rules) to an expert (one who examines theresults) requires intuition5 which is often difficult to teach or explain.Transitioning from a novice to expert can occur with the help of technology. Examples such asclickers or automatic response systems, Learning Catalytics, PollEverywhere, Hotseat, and TopHat have been shown to improve student learning.6,7 When implementing technology, however,it is important to note whether the learning that occurs is deep or shallow
