As a result, they oftenexcel in developing student’s capability of “problem solving” for concept improvement and“decision making” for concept selection, respectively; while their practical effectiveness inaugmenting student’s skills of “questioning” for problem formulation and “reasoning” forconcept generation is often limited. Second, most of existing methods were not intended tosupport design as a structured social construction process, while in practice, projected-basedlearning is a common approach used in a great majority of design courses12. As a result, it is notunusual that a highly structured design method is often used by a team of student designers via acompletely ad-hoc manner.This paper aims to introduce two

In this paper, we describe a project on introducing SDR to the Bachelor ofWireless Engineering (BWE) curriculum at Auburn University. In particular, we focus on developing anSDR laboratory course based on the GNU Radio and Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP)platform. We describe the detailed lab course structure, compare it with existing approaches, and presentsample labs and results.

signal processing (DSP) have found that using hands-on ex- ercises for students can smooth the transition from theory to practical real-time DSP. However, before significant learning can begin using such exercises, students must build their confidence in the hardware and software platforms. When using audio signals, a “talk-through” project accomplishes this. For intro- ducing more complicated signals such as video, the authors propose the use of a “see-through” project. This paper provides a description of a see-through project on a high-performance real-time DSP plat- form, discusses how such a project can lead to better follow-on learning using more advanced projects, and provides some initial results of
