-IP.Most of the fundamentals are on Digital Signal Processing but we focus on the applications tospeech and voice coding.In this paper, we first describe the DSP curriculum for both undergraduate and graduate students.We describe our experiences and the challenges encountered in developing these courses. Wedetail some of the laboratory and teaching materials and the exercises developed, etc.We discuss as an example the internet low-bit rate speech coder (iLBC) which is used to codespeech under packet loss conditions that exists on the internet.Finally, we present possible future directions in the course development.

Science CourseAbstractIn this work, we present a new teaching approach that we have implemented in our introductorycomputer science programming course. The methodology consists of team teaching, a hybriddelivery system, recorded lecture retrieval capability, readiness assessment activities, objectiveassessment of student progress, and cooperative learning through team work. The team teachingapproach consists of two faculty members being present and actively involved in lecture deliveryand classroom activities, which take place in a computer laboratory setting. The hybrid deliverysystem consists of using Centra, a real-time communication, collaboration and learning softwareenvironment, for lecture delivery, recording, and active student

achieved by the students taking the course. Thesimple rubric is as follows: 1 = competency increased somewhat 2 = competency increased significantly 3 = complete Outcome statement is fulfilledFor example, consider the Program Outcome related to the ability to communicateeffectively. Because the capstone design experience in the final year requires formal oralpresentations and an extensive written report, the design course sequence is assigned atarget of “3”. A laboratory course that has a focus on written reports might be assigned atarget of “2” or “3”, depending on the emphasis placed on writing or presentations. Atheory course with perhaps one project report or an otherwise reduced

Most available textbooks choose to use Matlab, but Mathcad can also veryuseful because of its natural and symbolic way of representing signals. WFilter ([3]) is another software tool foranalysis/design of analog as well as digital filters. Another factor to consider is the cost of licensing andmaintenance of these software packages. In our schools most of the tools are available in computer laboratories forstudent use. For some tools (e.g., Matlab) the student version is also available. Furthermore the tools can be optionalespecially for lecture courses where the emphasis might be on understanding and learning of basic concepts first.For details of these

The course is co-taught bymultiple instructors, from all the different disciplines. It is made up of short lecture sections andlonger laboratory activities. The main goal is to introduce the students to the basic principles,applications, and practical tools commonly used in the different fields. This paper presents aninnovative course development for the ECE component of this inter-disciplinary course. Thecourse offers effective, hands-on and practical activities to enhance the students’ learningexperiences. Another important feature of this course is that the students are presented withchallenges to exercise their

This paper reports both on baseline access, retention, andcareer data and a logic model associated with a comprehensive curricular reform resulting fromthe access, retention and career baseline data. As a result of this baseline data, the ERCeducational team has found innovative ways to infuse inductively based, situated curriculum andinstruction in addition to a student-centric outcome metrics into all aspects of the BMEcurriculum and associated laboratory experiences. These assessment measures build on theprinciples established in educational psychology and include pre and posttest BME conceptinventories, rubric-based laboratory assessments, BME efficacy measures and employersatisfaction measures.

IntroductionThis paper presents a set of classroom demonstrations developed for use in the senior levelanalog communications course that is common to most electrical engineering programs. Thedemonstrations are intended to provide motivation to students with little or no practicalexperience with communications systems. By using software defined radio (SDR),communication systems are demonstrated with signals that are familiar to students. Thedemonstrations can be used in any classroom or laboratory with minimal cost.Section II of this paper provides background on some of the issues that faculty

Mobile Studio gives them access, at any time andany place, to a full electronics laboratory for the price of a textbook; students have a portablelab in which tinkering is again possible; requiring only a spark of interest - not a big budget.With a good start provided by interested and dedicated teachers, student accomplishments areonly limited by their imagination.

students this opportunity, especially if done in an in-class orlaboratory setting. Laboratory courses give students a more hands-on approach to the conceptsand skills they are learning, making it a great time for individual and group reflection. However,if reflection is to be implemented within the laboratory setting, it is critical that the workload ofthe laboratory is not significantly increased. Adding a reflective portion to laboratory exerciseswithout revising the other activities will most likely contribute to students becoming overworked,which is detrimental to the very thing trying to be accomplished. This is discussed more later.Overall, this evolution towards making connections and reflective learning necessitates a shift inthe mindset
