technologyThis paper mainly describes the computer engineering internship project, in which foursophomore students from Cañada college developed a mobile gesture recognition system byintegrating bio-signal processing, machine learning, real-time system design, and mobile andcloud computing technologies. The project was conducted in the Intelligent Computing andEmbedded Systems Laboratory (ICE Lab) at San Francisco State university and was supervisedby the lab director and a graduate student mentor. The research outcome of the project as well asthe results of the pre- and post-program surveys show that the internship program was a greatsuccess in allowing the student interns to gain valuable computer engineering researchexperience and strengthening their

Here one may want toquote the famous phrase: Practice Makes You Perfect. This last, final group prefers to learnthrough experience. It is like performing a Ballet, or playing a Piano or building a modelbridge, etc. It could also be laboratory experience, clinical experience, simulation, case studies,co-op experience, industrial internship experience, service-learning experience, practical trainingexperience, etc. This perceptual mode is referred to as Kinesthetic mode.Additional Resources In addition to the above mentioned ideas, the author has

In the laboratory, students perform physical experiments to illustrate themathematical concepts covered in the lecture as well as Matlab-based modeling and simulationexercises derived from the theory learned in class. At Detroit Mercy we already had a freshmanlevel Introductory class on Matlab applications in Engineering. So, no laboratory component wasincluded in ENGR1234.Figure 1 shows a partial pre-requisite structure for some of the earlier mandatory courses inengineering prior to the introduction of the new course.
