ECE program offers a Feedback and Control course tojunior students in the Electrical Engineering and Electromechanical Engineering majors. Thiscourse is a 3-hour lecture, 2-hour lab, as a 4-credit course. Topics discussed include modeling inboth the time and the frequency domains, time response, model reduction, stability, steady-stateerror, root locus, design via root locus, frequency response, and design via frequency response.Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both students and faculty in our institution were forced to workand study from home in summer 2020. In order to engage students in distance learning,application-oriented and active-learning opportunities were created. A series of exclusivelysoftware-based labs and projects were designed

In thisproject, a double sideband large carrier waveform is produced using a simple switchingmodulator circuit. The resulting amplitude modulation (AM) waveform is then demodulatedusing an envelope detector circuit.

Over the last five years, the authors(instructors) have taught the ‘Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering’ classexclusively to the non-MSE students (primarily from mechanical, industrial and electricalengineering). From the student feedback obtained during this time, instructors realized the needfor a hands-on project for sustaining students’ interests and keeping them engaged while learningthe fundamental concepts of the field. It is thus necessary that the traditional materials sciencetetrahedron (Figure 1(a)) should be modified to cater to the interests of students from non
