After the course was changed, the lectures weremixed between 70% traditional and 41% video. Some of the video lectures were redundant withthe traditional lecture content. The homework method was changed to utilize a weeklyhomework assignment that was delivered with a detailed solution. Approximately a week later,students took a quiz that

Previousstudies have concentrated only on final lab grade and a lab practical score2 .While the data on the electrical aptitude test was collected, the test itself has notbeen validated. In this project, each of the questions on the electrical aptitude testwere themselves analyzed to determine if any one of them had a particularrelationship to a particular prior experience, grades in the lab or on a lab practical,or an attitude. If the electrical aptitude test score was highly correlated with aknown hands on ability measure, this could help validate the test constructed bythe researchers

In the TechnischeUniversiteit Eindhoven, The Netherlands, the modeling of control systems is an important part oftheir Bachelor’s in mechanical engineering degree curriculum3. There is a gradual introduction toreal world systems that begins with a lower level course where the students are introduced tomathematical concepts and A/D conversion and ends with a final year project that incorporatesthe manipulation of various feedback controllers to accomplish a specific task. In this way thestudents are transported from the theoretical understanding to actual

Many of these in-class projects served as components for their more ill-definedindividual projects. Some wished they had taken this course prior to their senior year, beforetaking DSP and communications. However, one student praised the ill-defined nature of theindividual projects, while commenting that juniors would struggle more with the less-prescribednature, since they would not yet have taken DSP and communications. One studentrecommended blending this SDR course into the communications-theory course, and splitting thetheoretical/applied combination into two

engineering curriculum has long been recognized.However, students often do not complete a hands-on, comprehensive design project until theirsenior year capstone design course. While this is obviously a very valuable and appropriatelearning experience, students benefit from and desire earlier and more frequent real-world designexperiences12. One reason design experiences are often delayed is that students do not have thetechnical breadth early in their academic careers necessary to complete a comprehensive designproject. While students in the first-year course, Fundamentals of ECE, do not have the breadthand depth to successfully carry out a completely open-ended design project with a level ofsophistication expected from senior students, they do have

The difficulties in such an endeavor are wellknown, and the societal benefits well understood.As a consequence, many projects have been designed with the intention of enhancing interest in STEMstudies. iMPaCT addresses the complementary challenge of providing under-prepared students with thereflective understandings of mathematical relationships needed to succeed in engineering programs andother core STEM subjects.

The virtualinterface planned to be developed involves creating simulations of the machine experimentson a website. Students log in, configure parameters and then “perform” the experiment.Simulations return results consistent with the machines in the laboratory. It is envisaged thatin this way all students will be able to perform all parts of all experiments in their own time.Students will still attend “hands-on” laboratory sessions to conduct selected parts of theexperiments as

It is likely to be part of the undergraduate core courses in the next fewyears. As the growth continues, some universities have made a course in Digital SignalProcessing (DSP) the first course taken by undergraduates instead of the traditional AnalogElectric Circuits course [5].We also note that DSP education is beginning to trickle down to the high-school level as well asevidenced by the Infinity project [14].

Additionally, the first part of the capstone project can be started. We have considered a 2 year capstone project work. The objective of the courses at Level3 is to emphasize on “implementation” of various components in a computer system. Though computer languages will be necessary, we hope that in the near future there will necessary tools that will provide the code once the appropriate design is provided at high level.
