However, with our teaching pedagogy, this barrier can be overcomethrough design of different types of filters by MATLAB and applying them to real-timeimplementations. MATLAB is a necessary tool used to verify filter performance and performsimulations of various digital filter applications. To motivate our technology students orientedabout hands-on experience, we required them to perform real-time DSP using a floating-pointdigital signal processor2-3, TMS320C6713 DSK (development starter kit), to develop a real-timeDSP project such as a digital crossover system.The paper is organized as follows.

After some discussion, we arrived at some possible reasons why thisoccurred.Design presentations have been in place in ECE since 1978, when it was first implemented insenior design. In the mid 1990’s the practice was integrated into sophomore and senior design.Because the practice has been in place in all three courses for almost 20 years, it has becomeinstitutionalized as a disciplinary genre in oral communication. Student familiarity with theexpectations of the presentation—the team approach and the prescribed time limit of 20minutes—may explain the minimal difference between project and control students’performances.
