SEEFs shared common motivations ofjoining a career involving instruction motivated by experiences during student teaching roles,and a desire to improve teaching practices. In addition, the SEEF community referred to Barkleyet al.’s handbook [29] on collaborative learning techniques provided a wealth of teachingmethods, along with Godsell’s sourcebook [30] which provided perspective on differentmethods, their implementation and evaluation, among many other sources. However common toall the SEEFs was interpreting the application of these methods to fit their discipline.

a real appreciation for what DSP is all about: processing signals quickly andefficiently to achieve some practical objective(s).The traditional textbook approach to teaching FFTs is to present students with a complicated setof equations showing how data is separated into pairs, processed using a 2-pt FFT, thenrecombined with another 2-pt FFT. The pairs of 2-pt FFTs are then processed to create a set of4-pt FFTs and the process is repeated until one single N-pt FFT has been computed. Theequations are typically followed with a Butterfly diagram used to illustrate the flow of data.While the idea is easy to convey to engineering technology students, the equations tend to beoverwhelming for most of my students.

A sample course schedule can be seen in the syllabuslocated in the Appendix. The course begins with the discussion of what ethics is in the narrowscope of the American “baseball, apple pie and mom” mentality and deals with issues that arerelatively straightforward. This approach addresses ethics from a fundamental moral standpointand uses case studies surrounding issues such as Ford Pinto’s exploding gas tank of the late1970’s and the space shuttle

An eye diagram provides the most fundamental,intuitive view of jitter. It is a composite view of all the bit periods of a captured waveformsuperimposed upon each other. In other words, the waveform trajectory from the start of period 2to the start of period 3 is overlaid on the trajectory from the start of period 1 to the start of period2, and so on, for all bit periods [3].

The choice of students was not shared with instructors.Instructors had performed remote instructions and assigned letter grades to students. Therefore,the grades reported in this paper are also letter grades.This study will be useful in planning for pandemics in the future as it finds that the post-plannedpandemic student outcome is same as the pre-pandemic.

When one reviews [3, 4, 5] the instructional materials currently available tothe robotics student she or he will find an assortment of old applied industrial robotics materialpublished in the mid to late 1990s with a plethora of robot design and kinematics texts that werepublished after 1999. This represents the traditional and current approach to the roboticseducation at many institutions. In the last four decades the student that took a robotics class wastypically a mechanical or
