Division Experimentation & Lab-Oriented Studies

Evaluate Student Learning in ElectronicsAbstractAs educators we want to make sure that our students are learning and understanding the materialwe teach them and that they will know how to apply it to solve real engineering problems. A vastamount of research has been dedicated to the study of new teaching methods and laboratorycurricula to ensure that our students are understanding, learning, and applying this knowledge tosolve problems.Our university emphasizes a hands-on approach to engineering education. From the beginning ofthe freshman year to the senior year, students participate in different levels of engineeringprojects. For our (analog) Electronics and Lab course we looked for a project-based

Over the past 50 years these fields havepredominately recruited students that have had an inherent interest in the fields, but one couldalso submit that there also existed a national fervor for science fueled by the momentum fromWorld War II and the space race. After 50 years this momentum has dissipated [2]. Thepercentage of science and engineering graduates relative to the total number

Various experimental techniques are taught while design and construction skills aredeveloped within the context of a semester-long project. Engineering disciplines that may differfrom a student’s chosen major are introduced. The departmental goal is to provide a solidfoundation for success as students proceed in their educational careers. Critical to the overallsuccess of the course is the development of good technical communication skills, both oral andwritten. The students are required to submit written work each week. In addition, they are askedto prepare and deliver an oral presentation detailing their laboratory work
