. The step requires active learning principles. The classical approach in engineering education is the short-answer homework problem, but discussions, laboratories and group problem solving are also successful. Obtaining laboratory data to verify predictions from the materials learned in Step 2 is another common approach for Step 3. Additionally, the emerging use of technology in the classroom can be applied in this step. Page 12.412.6 4. Connection to the Real World.

With modern LLMs,educators and researchers now have the tools to move beyond static resources or rule-basedadaptive tutors towards more dynamic systems that can customize learning materials on demand[3].

A review of the literature identified three broad strategic areas that have been common subjectsof study or highlighted in the results of studies of both expert and novice designers. How a designerviews the design problem at hand is intimately connected to how the designer attempts to find asolution to the problem. Equally important is how designers manage their own knowledge of thedesign problem and use it to manipulate and navigate through the solution they are developing. Thethird strategic area identified deals with the way the designer makes design decisions, includingwhat information is used and how the decisions are grounded or justified.Expert

in a Freshman Introduction to Electrical and Computer EngineeringIntroductionThe issue of how to most effectively teach ethics in engineering education continues to be apersistent concern in the field. As early as the 1940s, engineering professionals articulated afocus on public safety, health, and welfare. The Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (ABET) solidified this focus when it adopted criteria requiring that ethicalresponsibility be included in curricula of accredited institutions [1]. As a result, college textbookauthors soon began to include information about professional and ethical responsibility in theirpublications [2]. Over time, these trends have increased scholarly interest in the

What is Software Defined Radio(SDR)?Software Defined Radio (SDR)11-14 is an emerging technology built on one of the greatdevelopments of the 20th Century: fast and cheap microcomputers. It represents a new method inprocessing radio signals that is a quantum leap over the older, original method of analogprocessing.Since the invention of radio in the late 1800’s, signals have been processed through a singlemethod: the signal is picked up by an antenna that turns the radio wave back into a fluctuatingvoltage signal. This signal is passed on to various components in the receiver which react with itto eventually produce the sound, video or data that is desired.The function of these components and systems has been modeled mathematically in

, butlearning about engineering is frequently seen as a hurdle by teachers and assumed to be deliberatelyintegrated in STEM activities [1]. Even more issues emerge as teachers are asked to facilitate STEMteaching and learning for students classified as English Learners (ELs). Bilingual teachers, in particular,are faced with the challenge to integrate language and STEM content [6, 7], where expertise in sciencevocabulary is often seen as a must rather than helping the students learn through conceptualunderstanding [8] while sustaining the linguistic practices of the students.Despite the national call to integrate engineering in PK-12 settings, there are still several challenges thatemanate from instructional practices including the nature of the

While fractional calculus has traditionally beena domain of mathematicians, recent progress has shown that many systems encountered inelectronics, signal processing, control theory, and biological modelling are well described byfractional-order models [2, 3, 4]. Applications of fractional-order systems range from the controlof industrial machines with lower control effort and lower energy
