Oncethese basic practical design considerations have been addressed, the course continues with theimplementation of various modulation (e.g., ASK, PSK, FSK) and coding (e.g., BCH) schemes,with the objective of successfully transmitting ”hello world” and other messages wirelesslyover-the-air within a classroom environment. Finally, several advanced topics such as multipathpropagation, equalization, and multicarrier modulation are covered. Throughout the course, thestudents will be working in groups on a comprehensive course design project that synthesizesmany of the concepts taught in class.

University librarysubscriptions to discovery platforms are the ideal vehicle to access deep technical knowledge, as itemerges and evolves. Unsurprisingly, entrepreneurs who display learning initiative have higherlikelihoods of enhancing new startup performance than those whose do not [5]. Entrepreneurship (andSTEM fields) are undoubtedly best learned through doing (e.g. experiential learning, project-basedlearning), as opposed to passively reading or attending lectures[6]. Research and entrepreneurshipmindsets are excellent pairings. Legacy thinking has been that startups are simply smaller versions oflarge companies, and should therefore

Theresults showed statistically higher average gains in the classes using active learning methods.Inspired by inductive teaching and active learning approaches, some textbooks started tointroduce fundamental topics by using cases/projects instead of focusing on the calculations inSTEM disciplines [12].Through our teaching experiences, we have also observed that students learn more effectivelywhen videos and in-class demonstrations are introduced as supplements to lecture notes,especially when software and hardware are used.

This approach allows the researcher to model a complex processbased on a relatively small amount of empirical data. The DOE method is a key part both the SixSigma11 and the Certified Quality Engineer12 certifications. In EP Lab, students develop a two-level, three-factor, full-factorial model of a catapult (i.e. each combination of “high” and “low”settings for the three inputs is used).

used for this project had 600 pulses per revolution. With quadrature, thetotal resolution was 2400 increments per revolution. The encoder was connected to the inter-rupt pins of the Arduino (pins 2 and 3). Using interrupt routines causes the code for the po-sition update to run when triggered by the changing state of the signal, rather than having theprogram constantly check the signal to determine when to update the position. This allowsfor accurate position tracking without bogging down the system. The encoder features a built-in voltage regulator, so it was powered externally. The input lines were protected with10 kΩpullup resistors to ensure reliability of the measurements. The wiring diagram showing theconnection of both the encoder and

Therefore, the questionwas asked, “how do we teach electric motors in a way that is inexpensive for both the studentand the institution?” To answer this question, an undergraduate student research project wasdesigned and developed with funding from the university’s Center of Undergraduate Researchand Creative Activities. The objective of the project was to develop a user-friendly simulator thatcan be used to conduct electric motors (machines) experiments. This project resulted in thedevelopment of a customized educational simulator appropriate for use in the electric motorscourse.
