enrolledin the class of “Digital Signal Processing (DSP).” Two undergraduate students who have takenthe course of “Signals and Systems” but have not yet taken or finished “Digital Signal Processing”were invited to test laboratory exercises developed in this project. The goal of this project is todevelop laboratory exercises to demonstrate theories covered in fundamental signal processingcourses. Such courses are mathematically orientated and students often feel challenged in theseclasses. We believe that experimental exercises with real-life application examples can motivatestudents and help them to develop a better understanding of signal processing theories.IntroductionOne of major issues an electrical engineering undergraduate student encounters

as well as computercircuits. Typical courses over multiple semesters include analog electronics, digital electronics,C/C++ programming, instrumentation and measurement systems, communications systems, andmicrocontrollers. Each of these courses also includes a lab component that provides studentswith hands-on projects which are intended to reinforce the lecture material.The goal of this paper is to demonstrate that a Programmable System-On-Chip embedded board(PSoC 5LP) can be used as a basis for multiple lab projects in these courses. The intent is to alsoinclude examples of the types of lab projects that can be used within these courses. Possible labprojects include: function generator, audio collection, digital processing, serial

Those attributes, such asfrequency, sequence, and association of learning behavior were identified through astructured arrangement and statistical analysis. In addition, those key learning activities thatinspire the students' creativity along with the creativity assessment results were discovered.According to our findings, high creativity students proceeded with active exploration duringlearning more frequently compared to low creativity students.
