the program [6].This remainder of this paper focuses on the sophomore-level engineering program that wasdeveloped and consisted of a sequence of two courses. As noted, this course was designed tobridge the gap between the freshman engineering design courses and the junior year laboratorycourses.Educational goals for the second-year sequence included reinforcing and building uponprofessional skills introduced during the freshman year. This included teamwork, team writing[7], and presentation techniques. Relevant technical skills were also introduced in the course.As this was for a mechanical engineering program, computer-aided drafting (CAD), bestpractices for intuitive mechanical design [8], and prototype construction skills were

Theremin circuit designs exist that can be assembledby novices and easily adapted for creative variations in design. The basic principles of electricalcircuitry and troubleshooting can be taught to students with no prior electronics experience in avery short time. The students have a direct sense of accomplishment when they can demonstratea working Theremin-based device and can display their musical talents with a performance whilealso being able to explain the technical internal functionality.
