Session Number 3530 Teaching and Assessing Engineering Design: A Review of the Research Susan Campbell Carol L. Colbeck The Pennsylvania State UniversityAccording to the National Academy of Sciences (1995), undergraduate engineering education inthe United States currently focuses on the study of engineering science at the expense of design.In a brief history of engineering design education, Eder (1991) explains that in the 1950s theengineering curricula shifted from a focus on teaching students about technology used in

Using Inexpensive Hardware and Software Tools to Teach Software Defined Radio Abstract Signal processing topics such as software defined radio are more easily taught by using demonstra- tions and laboratory experiences that pique the students’ interest. This paper describes a new, inexpensive software defined radio educational platform based upon M ATLAB and the Texas Instruments C6713 dig- ital signal processing starter kit. We describe the various hardware and software issues and discuss how such a platform can be used in the classroom.1 INTRODUCTIONSoftware defined radio (SDR) is a topic that is becoming

Hence, no interface figure is available at this time for this paper. Inthe interim, the MATLAB script in Figure 5 can be used for 2D truss member forceanalysis using the method of joints. The student will use Figure 5 script for each joint onthe truss. Similarly, the MATLAB script in Figure 6 can be used for 3D truss memberforce analysis using the method of joints.Classroom Use of Statics Mini-programsThe statics mini-programs have been offered in the MET Statics course during the 2004Fall semester, as a set of optional virtual laboratory exercises.

A New Old Approach to Teaching Microprocessors: Update and Lessons LearnedAbstractIn 2009 we described a hands-on approach to teaching microprocessors in which students hand-wired a Z80-based microprocessor system and programmed it in machine code. The constructionof the microprocessor system was accompanied by lectures in a variety of topics includingcomputer organization, instruction set architectures, the Intel family of microprocessors, andhigh-speed techniques such as pipelining and superscalar processing. The course has now beentaught twice and undergone a number of modifications to both the content and the Z80 systembuilt by the students. In this paper we report on those modifications and

[2] in elevator application, and reference [3] in DSP application have used Multisim and proved that Multisim is an effective tool in teaching and learning. On the other hand, reference [4] discussed that teaching HDL may distract students from learning the digital systems because of unfamiliarity with HDL. How to balance HDL and Multisim in teaching and learning can be another discussion. For example, reference [5] used a cross platform method to teach and reference [6] disclosed the visualization of circuit components can help learning compared to just text format such as HDL. The worst case is damaging the hardware as mentioned in [7] compared to virtual simulation. Reference [8] explored the method of using Multisim to

to other platforms.ConclusionA combination of assembly and C language was used to teach the basics of microprocessorprogramming in the updated Microprocessors course at BSU, using a modern developmentenvironment (a soft processor instantiated on an FPGA with classic RISC architecture).Overlapping the teaching of both languages had a synergistic effect on educating the studentsabout microprocessors. In addition to learning how microprocessors work and control a broadrange of devices, the students learned problem-solving skills and practiced these skills withrealistic laboratory assignments and projects. Materials developed to teach the updatedMicroprocessors course are continuing to be expanded and refined.References[1] B.E. Dunne, A.J
