modulation and demodulation theory. It is specifically designed to stir theinterest of junior or senior level electronics minded electrical engineering students. In thisproject, a double sideband large carrier waveform is produced using a simple switchingmodulator circuit. The resulting amplitude modulation (AM) waveform is then demodulatedusing an envelope detector circuit. The proposed project requests that students perform a circuitsimulation as well as an actual circuit implementation. The circuit behavior is studied via bothanalysis using software tools and measurement using hardware components. The project furtherrequires that the electrical signals are visualized in both the time and frequency domain toenhance concept understanding. The paper

Participation of Undergraduates in Engineering Research: Evolving Paradigms over Three Decades of ChangeIntroduction:Participation of undergraduates in research has received escalating attention over the last twodecades as a “win-win” situation for students, faculty, and institutions. It serves as experiential-and service-learning enhancement of students‟ total education and marketability, often within amultidisciplinary and honors context. Many institutions and government agencies haveestablished infrastructures to support undergraduate research. However, the author hasadvocated and mentored undergraduate research for nearly three decades, starting when it wasn‟tnearly as in-vogue as it is now. References 1

In addition, future research might gain additionalinformation from interviewing faculty and teaching assistants engaged in implementing designthinking curriculum. This research might be particularly helpful as we think about ways to 9improve how we introduce design thinking to undergraduate engineering student audiences andtrain faculty to create their courses with design thinking processes in mind. This may be ofparticular interest

This is especially encouraging since learninghow to collaborate to achieve desired outcomes is one of the objectives of SEED Lab. It alsodoes not come as a surprise since the complexity of the project demands cohesive collaborationbetween members who are “experts” in a sub-discipline. Evidently, students realized how criticalteamwork is and therefore, it is something at the forefront of their minds as a pathway to success.For the team to succeed, more is required beyond the completion of individual pieces. When theteammates come together to integrate their subsystems, it gives them a means of practicing andlearning collaboration. The phase of integration

come to the engineer’s mind, one is to use apotentiometer and the other is to use a decade resistor box. If the engineer uses one side of thepotentiometer and the center of it, he/she now has a continuously adjustable resistor or an analogvariable resistor. However, if the engineer uses a decade resistor box (has several resistors in onebox) he/she has a discrete adjustable resistor or a digital variable resistor.2.2.
