expected tocomplete two to three modules per week, allowing for flexibility to accommodate differences intheir schedule. The timing of this course could be described as a mix between a traditionalcourse, where there are hard due dates, and a correspondence course where most of the work isusually due at the end of the course.A large reason for the modularization of material and reduction in actual lecture and laboratorytime stems from various research. In the 1980's, Johnstone and Percival indicated that theaverage attention span was approximately 10-20 minutes.5 In addition, during an average 45-90minute lecture, each required refocus further decreases the attention span. It is believed byresearchers such as Dr. Carr that attention span has

task of verifying the theoretical description of circuit performance is definitelyfound in the lower three Bloom’s levels. When the students were asked to predict the cause(s) fora given fault in the observed circuit behavior and then simulate as validation, they were workingin the upper three levels. Both of these tasks can also be done experimentally, but it may not bepossible to fully identify the cause of the fault using only one approach. Finally, the time andfrequency dependent data obtained for circuits using either method have similar formats and,thus, involve similar issues in doing them correctly. For example, triggering a scope (akadeciding when to start collecting data) and specifying time and voltage scales require verysimilar

However, these devices offer fewer choices interms of RF frontend configurations and host interfaces. Furthermore, mid-range systems relymore on host processing and do not offer stand-alone systems.
