This course consists oftwo hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. Students have had courses inelectrical circuit analysis, electrical machines, and analog and digital electronics before takingthis course. The first three weeks of the fifteen-week semester are devoted primarily toLabVIEW programming. During the next eight weeks, the concepts and integration of sensorsand actuators, interface electronics, and data acquisition and instrument control hardware/software are covered. The final four weeks are dedicated to student-initiated laboratory designprojects3-6. This paper

simulations as a teaching aid is very useful, perhaps even more so in a distancelearning environment. Southern Polytechnic State University’s (SPSU) Electrical and ComputerEngineering Technology (ECET) program is engaged in converting its curriculum to a distanceor hybrid distance format. Since all but two of the ECET courses have a laboratory component,this creates a significant challenge in providing a similar laboratory experience for the off-campus students. An obvious choice is to require distance students to visit the campusperiodically to perform hands-on lab exercises. This can be difficult for some students to do andwill limit enrollment to students who can.The laboratory for the department’s Telecommunications Engineering Technology (TCET

Real Time Communication Systems With PCsAbstractCommunication system classes have been traditionally taught with a lecture-only format.However, the proliferation of new concepts and algorithms in communication systems makes itincreasingly hard for students to master them only through mathematical derivations.Furthermore, without a hands-on demonstration of how the algorithm is used in real-lifeapplications, students without strong mathematical skills can become frustrated and generate aretention problem in EET/CET/EE programs. To overcome this problem, the theory taught inlecture has been complemented with laboratory experiments and class projects. However, manytraditional communication systems’ laboratory experiments are related to various

Most of these programs use either Basic or C++.Of the more recent languages; Java, PHP, Python, Ruby use of Python is gaining groundamong modern computer programmers. Learning Python is easier, less grammatical and usesmore natural syntax. These two reasons are enough to make the case for teaching it as thefirst programming language.Python is easy to learn and simple
