theimportance of power engineering education in the power engineering profession.A hands-on laboratory course is also crucial, along with a lecture-based course in power systemsengineering, as this delivery mode will better help the students to understand the smart gridconcepts. However, current curricula mostly include traditional topics for laboratory courses,such as electric power and machinery. The laboratory courses should also update along with theupdated lecture courses and cover smart grid technologies, i.e., renewable and green energyintegration, energy efficiency, energy storage.

It includes six degrees of coordination namely reflexmovement, fundamental movements, perceptual abilities, physical abilities, skilled movements,and non-discursive communication.A review of existing literature in the psychomotor domain shows that teaching models have beendeveloped to promote critical thinking in the psychomotor setting [18]. Contemporary motor-skill learning theory [19] clearly supports the interaction of cognitive and neuromuscularprocesses as being necessary for the efficient execution of motor programs, which in turn utilizescognitive functions such as comparing, evaluating, memory, and imagery.

create a breadth-first introductory course to motivate and inspire the students to dig deeper into topics they will see later in the curriculum. Through early exposure to a broad set of knowledge and simulation/laboratory techniques, students can begin to develop intellectual curiosity and intuition about how electrical and computer systems work and, in the process, see the fun and excitement in electrical and computer engineering. This paper delves into the development of the course, from the determination of the goals through the implementation of the course structure and teaching philosophy. The paper concludes with an analysis of student feedback.1.0 IntroductionA lesser known corollary to Murphy’s Law for Engineers states

Tomake programming less abstract and to establish a real-life connection, we use MATLAB forinterfacing with a data acquisition device called LabJack. Students use MATLAB’s integrateddevelopment environment to write scripts that control the LabJack.This environment has enabled students to participate in some interesting hands-on projects thatcombine problem-solving, programming, and interfacing. Early on, student participation in theECE 102 course consisted of attending lectures, three laboratory exercises related to LabJack andMATLAB interfacing, and participation in

In this paper, we present how we follow the project-based and divide-and-conquerpedagogies to help students design, implement, debug, and operate an efficient neural networksmodel for function approximation. The effectiveness of the neural network model for functionapproximation is evaluated through various milestone assignments, milestone reports, presentations,and other activities. Teaching and learning strategies of this neural network model methodology forfunction approximation were validated by learning outcomes of

In teaching software-defined radio, it would be interesting to test receivers with realRF signals instead of simulated ones.There are advantages in having the students work with real signals in laboratory courses[1,2,3].But for those students without access to the expensive test equipment or the time to set up theexperiments, a database may be the only way to get access to a wide
