Laboratory at the West Virginia University Lane Department ofComputer Science and Electrical Engineering, set up one of its four sections offered in an onlinefashion as a “lab in a box.” This approach is a set of hands-on exercises where students design,build, and test circuits at home using an inexpensive all-in-one electronics kit, digital multimeter,and a USB oscilloscope. With this “lab in a box,” the students, at their own convenience, conductseveral multi-week laboratory experiments such as basic amplifier design, LED four channelcolor organs, and frequency response of circuits. Each week, students use online tools such asdiscussion boards and blogs through a web-based course management system, built into thecampus Learning Management System

this paper describes a Linear Systems laboratory project that involves designing a simplifiedspeech recognition system to recognize the 5 long vowel sounds for a team of 3 or 4 students. Thisproject is assigned soon after the student has been introduced to the Fourier Transform in theassociated Linear Systems lecture course. This paper describes the Laboratory project byillustrating the solution with a specific example drawn from real data for a single student team.This laboratory project has the primary goals: 1. Understand the importance of the Fourier Spectrum for developing useful signal analysis algorithms and systems. 2. Develop a speaker-independent vowel classification system to distinguish the 5 long vowel sounds for a

focus on hands-on experience and practical skills. This arrangement ismainly due to the convenience of having information delivered in a classroom environment, whilemaking use of the lab resources to apply and experiment with the newly gathered information.However, keeping these two separate is neither ideal nor representative of the workplace, whereengineering is a coherent and iterative process. In fact, problems often arise when the lecture andlab components are not fully coordinated. In attempt to progress engineering education, theMyFPGA platform is developed.Building a remote laboratory such as MyFPGA has been an active research area since MIT startedthe iCampus research project [1], aiming at creating an online laboratory for various

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
