In addition, students are required to develop comprehensive real-timeDSP projects and demonstrate their working projects in class.We will outline our course learning outcomes and DSP laboratories with both MATLABsimulations and hands-on real-time DSP. Then, we will focus on describing real-time DSPpedagogies for our laboratory implementations. We will also examine the course assessmentaccording to our collected data from course evaluation, student surveys and student course work,and finally we will address improvement of the course based on our assessment.I.

laboratory experiment, but italso has disadvantages, namely students have less class time to learn the fundamentals of twovast fields of study—statistics and measurement.Initially, the content of the IDE’s Data Analysis course was organized in series, focusing onmeasurement topics first and statistical concepts second. This sequential model had twomajor disadvantages. First, because the measurement and data acquisition content wasconcentrated at the start of the semester, many students struggled to remember what they“learned” in the first part of the class when they completed their culminating project later inthe semester, in which they designed their own experiment and then collected and analyzedtheir own data. This phenomenon illustrated that

This feedbackhelped fine-tune the partnership model to provide participating scholars with the mostmeaningful support possible.Findings suggest three design features of successful support: 1. While general training and support such as those offered by career service centers are useful, specific support by STEM faculty with real-time efforts in applying for academic positions was more timely and valuable for URM scholars. 2. Transition support is critical as scholars’ needs shift from dissertator to postdoctoral researcher to early career faculty. For example, requests to review

Engineering Ethics for First Year Engineering StudentsThis Work-in-Progress paper stems from an NSF-sponsored project in which a series of game-based activities have been developed for the purpose of enhancing instruction in engineeringethics. These activities have been integrated into first year engineering courses on severalcampuses. One of these activities is called Toxic Workplaces. In gameplay, the students arepresented with scenarios that involve ethical dilemmas. Each scenario comes with severalpossible responses. The game involves the student/player attempting to rank these possibleresponses in order of popularity. Thus, players do not necessarily need to take a position on whatthey themselves would do, but rather are attempting to match the
