Although every student must learn these basicoperations, the limited space in the laboratory or financial challenges allow colleges to educate with asmaller number of equipment than the class size. Moreover, spring 2020 semester required alleducational institutions to conduct their classes remotely due to the global pandemic.

implementation of a new course in communications through thecreation of a computer-based laboratory for modeling and simulating communicationsystems. The lecture course in a typical Electrical Engineering (EE) curriculum, alongwith this laboratory, provide a totally integrated delivery system for teaching a widespectrum of topics ranging from transmission/reception concepts and applications toperformance analysis of fiber optic networks. The laboratory is easily implemented byconstructing a PC-based computer network supporting several simulation tools. Studentsare able to access a variety of software packages for analysis of different communicationsystems. The topics covered in the laboratory can be divided into three categories:communication signals

All of this enhanced theeducation process in this particular course. This approach seems to be useful in otherengineering undergraduate courses as well. Instructors at other institutes are encouraged to trythis new method of teaching, but they have to be careful with its limitations and constraints. References1.

dimensionless drag (i.e., a dragcoefficient) and a collection of variables that relate fluid properties, geometry, and object speed(aka the Reynolds number). But students at home cannot easily measure drag forces (or infer themfor a wide range of objects and velocities). As another example, the results of deformation ofdroplets as they impact surfaces can be presented in a universal way using dimensionless numbers(dimensionless deformation and Weber number) [6]; however, this phenomenon requiresequipment beyond the means of even a typical undergraduate teaching laboratory! A phenomenonwhich is accessible with limited materials, and which can serve as a dimensional analysis example,is that of the motion of a heaving buoy. In addition, there is a simple
