The system renders several promising features: portable, low-cost, simple, and compact in size, to name a few. In this paper, we first introduce the components and the mechanism of the RF measurement system. We then present a laboratory exercise that designed for an antenna radiation pattern study using the developed system. Detailed lab procedures and results collected from a recent upper-division communication systems course in an EET program are provided. The lab results demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed system. Additional assessment data from students’ feedback further

Faculty advisor also should be knowledgeable about courses, curriculum, policies, strategies, and an in-house procedure. They should also be aware of any changes to the program and relay that information to students as soon as possible.ConclusionEffective academic advising is crucial to the long term success of students in Engineering andEngineering Technology disciplines.

difficulties associated withassessment include the following.• Deciding what to assess: Within engineering it can be difficult to determine what exactly students should be accountable for knowing and being able to do. For example, in an engineering design class, do we want to assess students’ knowledge of the steps of a particular method, their ability to evaluate how well a method was applied, their ability to execute the method, and/or their ability to integrate the results of the method into an emerging designed artifact.• Deciding how to assess: Given an assessment goal, another problem is developing an instrument that is capable of capturing levels of knowledge relative to the goal. A frequent problem with assessment is

This formulation of dynamics is typically reserved for courses in which it canbe derived, which students encounter in their senior years at the earliest. However, while diffi-cult to derive, Lagrange’s equations are easy to use for conservative systems, even for sophomorestudents. They perform the functions of uniting energy methods with Newton’s second law andintroduce students to the concept of equations of motion that will be used consistently in juniordynamic systems.

Classes are required, papers are assigned, some comments are voiced; but in so many casesthe retention of communication skill is not assured and does not become an integral part of theengineer's existence. Engineers need to understand the bond between their technical knowledge andtheir communication skills. This bond must be accomplished in the most efficient amount of time sothat it creates a lasting awareness of technical communication and its importance in every engineer'scareer.
