In thesecases, students desired that the course instructor provide more “real world” application, and thatpractical lab use integrate theory and practice.Use as independent homework, outside structured lab/classroom settings, was designed to supportboth traditional class instruction and lab work. In new-use settings, this homework often was forextra credit or exploratory purposes and was an extension of regularly assigned work. As usebecame more embedded and the instructor(s) more familiar, inclusion in homework reflectedadvanced opportunities to practice/learn material. As noted above, this expansion includedapplications in new courses, but more often was to new

This development of SERC was used as part of the ABETaccreditation for showing continuous improvement in the department and for its support ofundergraduate education [8]. While SERC is not mandatory, it is highly encouraged forundergraduates to participate in by the electrical engineering department.Students are able to participate in SERC in three different ways.

Students simulate, breadboard, and measure theperformance of a variety of AM radio building blocks (various amplifiers, detectors, etc.) ontheir way towards building a functional radio. The course has a common Monday lecturefollowed by a 2-hour lab section meeting later in the week. It is not tied to a specific class; itdraws from and integrates concepts from several electrical engineering courses. An advantage tothis approach is that students can more

, flexibility comes with a higher demand forstudent self-guidance abilities. Though the rapid switch to online instruction proved to bechallenging, early data shows that the integration of online labs has a likely chance to persistas part of the curriculum, perhaps in combination with hands-on labs. For example, one couldthink of using online labs as preparation for hands-on labs to better understand boththeoretical concepts and basic technical procedures and use face-to-face lab time for morecomplex activities.In online learning environments, user experience (UX) is the users’ perspective of andresponse to using the systems. Faculty and students are both users of the interfaces for onlinelabs and experiments. Faculty are responsible to design

The importance of a mathematical framework cannot be denied,and yet mathematics alone often does not foster an intuitive understanding of these fundamentalconcepts.Hands-on laboratory projects help students to make connections between theory and practice.Hardware-based projects often require a substantial amount of setup time and debugging effort,and therefore can only explore a relatively small subset of the course topics. Computer-basedsimulation and visualization of communication systems, on the other hand, allow students toexperience a wider variety of fundamental concepts in the same amount of time, provided thatthe computer tools offer a sufficiently high level of abstraction.

IntroductionThe world faces concurrent energy and pollution crises. Rapid population growth and an increasein the living standard in many emerging countries have led to a greater demand for fossil fuels.Over the next 25 years, the societal requirement for energy is forecasted to increase by 36% withthe bulk attributed to developing countries1. The demand for energy will eventually outpace theability to supply energy from traditional resources. Most industry experts believe that an energycrisis is likely for

The recent availability of increasingly powerful, yet low-cost, wireless networked devicesmakes it much more feasible to adopt a ‘middle-out’ approach, where students get to experienceand use embedded systems and IOT, before delving deeper into the details of how such systemsare constructed at the circuit level or integrated in a networked environment.

Instead, the junior labs are designed to be multi-disciplinary, integrating conceptsthroughout electrical engineering. Such an approach has a number of advantages1-4, one beingthat students can more readily appreciate the interrelation between electrical engineering subdisciplines. In addition to the technical content, the core laboratories also develop our students’teaming and communications skills (both oral and written).
