For this experiment, the antenna andthe receiver were connected above each other on a wooden pole. Antenna height was fixed at 3.5feet from the ground. This set up has been shown in figure -3.

which is a major, but littlerecognized, challenge for engineering education. The use of computer assisted learning toprovide the required knowledge is already being promoted as an alternative. Clearly, thereis no need for a lecture if the same material is available by alternative methods and can beat a time and paced to suit an individual. Considering the effectiveness of such onlinelearning as the only metric, as educators are wont to do, is foolish. What will increasinglydrive adoption of automated learning platforms at all but the most elite institutions iseffectiveness vs. cost [26].

Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.
