A series of studio projects have been developed, each of which requiresimplementation and testing of DSP algorithms on data received by student-owned SDRs. Datasources include signals of opportunity as well as instructor-generated test signals. The result is amobile learning environment in which students can visualize and apply abstract theoreticalconcepts, implement real-time algorithms, and rapidly test their designs using real-world data.IntroductionSoftware-defined radio (SDR) technology has transformed

Museum’s CollectionWithin STEM education, a movement called STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art,and Mathematics) is gathering momentum. Yet, while articles abound with ideas forincorporating STEAM concepts into K-12 classrooms, the literature on STEAM education at theuniversity level is scant. Complicating matters is the fact that the “A” in STEAM does notalways stand for “Art”; for example, in one recent ASEE paper that contains the words “STEAMcurricula” in its title, the “A” stands for “Agriculture” [1].However, reflections on STEAM at the university level can be found in a few papers presented atthe 2013 ASEE convention. One, “Faculty reflections on a STEAM-inspired interdisciplinarystudio course,” offers insights on the opportunities
