The instructors for this course can also adjust some topics to make some readingand assignments relate to technology and engineering.Spring Activities - Students often have academic difficulty in the first semester and can benefit from follow up interactionin their second semester. Realizing this, an additional course was created for spring. Rather than professionaldevelopment, this course had a focus on various engineering topics as requested by the twenty enrolled students.

theirunderstanding of design itself: To focus the design process on the needs of the user and customer rather than on the capabilities of technology requires a change in mindset, one often resisted by engineers. We were surprised to find that the journals helped to change their minds. Journals actually gave the students a place to think through their objections to the principles of user-centered design, allowing them to convince themselves of the value of these principles. 8These practical studies of the ways in which students benefit from writing that takes placeduring the “thinking” phases of projects give credence to the concept of invention, whichhas been dismissed by some as a romanticized mystification.

Even though this process meets most of thetypical Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) objectives, it often fails to instillcritical thinking and does not necessarily motivate students to pursue graduate thesis-oriented research.In fact, the rigid lecture and text book structures in some of the Digital Signal Processing (DSP) classesoften fail to connect the concepts with applications and with application-driven research. Of particularinterest is the impact of the aforementioned education problems in the areas of signal processing forcommunications (SP-COM). A common observation from teaching the typical UG courses in these areasis that, regardless of the innovative teaching strategies

Most teaching institutions also have the advantage ofdeveloping new techniques by research and development. At some stage however, studentsmust transfer from the theoretical technological models into practice, applying theory and atthe same time adapting to a harsh production-orientated climate.2.
