Coveragebegins with the study of transmission lines, which constitute a very important application ofelectromagnetics. Signal reflection and impedance matching are critical concepts in wirelesscommunications and radar. However, while students often can properly apply formulas to solvetransmission line problems, they often lack a deep understanding of how these lines work.MATLAB can serve as a useful tool for illuminating the operation of transmission lines

this paper is thedesign, evaluation and improvement of a multi-faceted, intra-disciplinary laboratory called theSystems Exploration, Engineering, and Design Laboratory (SEED Lab). Created with the supportand input of industry partners, the SEED Lab aims to emulate our students' likely futureexperiences in a professional environment. The course employs assessment techniques such asreflection logs, CATME evaluations, team presentations at regular intervals, performance-baseddemonstrations, and case studies.This work will contribute to the body of engineering education scholarship by evaluating theimpact of the SEED Lab on students' development of attitudes toward failure in the engineeringdesign process and reflection abilities.

These techniques are often limited to design-courses that develop “soft-skills” in engineers. Conventional courses, however, subscribe totraditional teaching methods with fewer opportunities for student reflection. Examples ofunconventional reflective journaling activities employed in an engineering course that addressedmodern physics concepts and semiconductor material topics will be highlighted in this paper.The teaching and learning model for this course was based on the established theory of

Additionally, one graduate student,not responsible for an example video, also performed an assessment of the videos. Finally, thestudents were required to provide guided self-reflections on their communication skills after theyhad completed their videos and performed and received peer reviews. It has been wellestablished that having students reflect on their own learning can enhance the learning process[6]. Self-reflection questions were chosen to encourage students to be critically reflective of theirown performance and consider how to improve their performance for future video submissions.Here are the

concerns. Simply asking ”What can Ido to help you learn better? What can you do to learn better?” helped students reflect on theirlearning behaviors, and in many cases, improved their experience throughout the course. Thisstrategy provided an opportunity for students to take more responsibility for their learning andvoice their feedback about the course. The assessments also helped the faculty member improvethe course in real time. With this approach, the instructor also identified a number of learningbottlenecks, where a significant number of students were having problems.

In this experiment the students create a quasi-monochromatic light beam using the combination of a broadband source (tungsten-halogenlamp) and a grating spectrometer. The beam is reflected from the surface of a GaAs/AlGaAsquantum well and the intensity of the reflected light is measured as a function of the incidentphoton energy.

Their research produced seven sets of assumptions on knowledge andhow to obtain it. These sets became the stages in their Reflective Judgment (RJ) model[23]. Theseven stages are divided into three group described below. • Pre-reflective (Stages 1-3) – In these stages, knowledge is obtained only from authorities or firsthand experience and that knowledge is “known” to be correct. • Quasi-reflective (Stages 4

Then, in their draft CSR report, the students were tasked with summarizing –for a broad audience—how they accounted for CSR in their design. They were also expected towrite a 1-2 paragraph reflection of how incorporating CSR influenced their design process andfinal design, because reflection is another suggested component of PBL [9]. Finally, they had togive a short in-class presentation to Peach’s Board of directors justifying their design and theincorporation of CSR.  Over
