A take-home laboratory kit called The BitBox©which incorporates The BitBoard and a DE1 is also described. The paper discusses the results ofa student survey on the usefulness and reliability of the device and the kit. Observations andresults of the survey suggest that The BitBoard and The BitBox are effective educational toolsfor teaching digital logic fundamentals and have a range of application well beyond the localenvironment. The BitBoard and provides a seamless way to bridge the gap from basic gate-levelexperiments to advanced FPGA projects using an integrated take home laboratory kit.IntroductionThis

We plan to use the lessons learned from the project-based approach to improve thehands-on section of the course in future semesters. We trust our study will be beneficial toinstructors, who are teaching an electrical circuits course and are interested in bringing thelaboratory to a large classroom.I. Background Electrical Circuits is a required course for most undergraduate engineering major students.This course is often taught in a traditional lecture-based approach, which makes studentengagement difficult.

Further cementing the relationship, UTC graduates havebecome adjunct professors at ChSCC and ChSCC instructors have become UTC graduatestudents.

Furthermore, a set of rubrics is used for each PI so that the raters employconsistent criteria when an article from the same student is being evaluated. Action itemsgenerated from different raters are then summarized as a report and feedback to the programdirector or chair to take corrective actions for improvement. The program director or chair maythen choose to disseminate or generate sub-action items for faculty to act on or to change thecurriculum as a result. This multi-rater methodology is adopted by BlackBoard® [16].Augmented with the above is the assessment plan. The assessment

University began encouraging eportfolios across campus as part of its QualityEnhancement Plan. A description of eportfolios and its educational justification is given in thenext section. Thus, in support of the university’s plan, and with the hope and anticipation ofproviding a better learning experience for our students, we decided to replace the RF SystemsLaboratory technical memos with eportfolios as our method to develop the writing ability of thestudents.Supporting TheoryThe use of eportfolios in higher education has become increasingly common. Some estimates saythat more than 50% of college students in the United States have used eportfolios in somefashion [3]. While eportfolio use is common, the purposes for eportfolio implementation

Wenoticed students working in groups in this class tend to stick together afterwards in study groups,which contributed to their success in other classes. In addition to team building, we view theengineering design course as a “career molding” experience by showing the exciting, hand-onside of engineering. We believe all of these aspects contribute to the improvement of studentretention rates.In this paper, we will address the motivation for redesigning our engineering experience for firstyear students and re-shuffling of the CE 4-year plan based on observations and student

. In addition to developing their sensor circuit, students must also create andpopulate a PCB to hold their electronics. The PCBs are fabricated through an off-site vendor,which means that students must account for production delays when planning their projecttimeline. In addition to the on-campus electronics lab used to develop and test their circuits,students also had access to temperature and pressure chambers at the University of Washingtonin order to simulate conditions in the upper atmosphere. Due to inclement weather the proposedhigh-altitude launch was postponed until the summer, and most students collected data from atethered launch instead that took place near the end of the spring semester.

The group did not anticipate how much effortwould be required for this project, and ultimately failed budget enough time. In the future, I planto take two steps to rectify the problem. First, I will work with students interested in reverseengineering a system to ensure that they understand how difficult such tasks can be. I also plan toinstantiate weekly in-class chats with each group to track progress and ensure that groups aresticking to a realistic project schedule.The other problem came up is that while several groups chose projects involving image andvideo processing, the process to read in video through the Zybo’s HDMI port proved moredifficult

In2006, NSF organized a National Summit on Educational Games with the specific objective ofdiscussing “ways to accelerate the development, commercialization, and deployment of newgeneration games for learning” [9]. Among reasons cited for the U.S. need to focus on digitalgames for learning, is that video games “require players to master skills in demand by today’semployers” (p. 4) – strategic and analytical thinking, problem solving, planning and execution,decision-making, and adaptation to rapid change.

Instead they aim to foster a stronger engagement and interest from studentsbefore facing complicated concepts in control systems. Presenting a less aggressive introduction,rather than going straight to formulas and long enunciates, may make students more comfortablewith Control Systems, promoting more self-motivation that can positively affect students’academic achievements.Results of a questionnaire at Florida Atlantic University have shown that students, who wereexposed to the new way of introducing Control Systems concepts, support a more nontraditionalapproach to teaching.

Students liked the ability to refer back to the lectures to study and they liked theopportunity to have more practice with course material during the lecture period. Final examresults indicate that there was a significant improvement in student performance on the exam inthe section with the flipped classroom format when compared to final exam performance in atraditional lecture format. In general, the flipped classroom gave students more opportunity tointeract with the microprocessor datasheet and more practice doing computations. It is not clearwhy students did worse on some code writing problems, but future offerings of the course plan tofill
