However, incorporating a laboratory feel into these courses would enhancelearning and retention. The design and use of a low-cost virtual control workstation in the firstundergraduate control theory course will be discussed. The virtual workstation was modeledfrom the physical electrical and mechanical parameters of a Quanser Consulting electro-mechanical system.I. Introduction Two control workstations from Quanser Consulting have been used in over adozen student projects in the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department at BradleyUniversity as well as for faculty research 1.

writing, conversation, and critical thinking.Faculty members in both the humanities and sciences have embraced this program. It posedsome unique challenges to integrate the idea of an elective engineering course into thisframework, which emphasizes reading, writing and conversation. The initial results suggest thatthis kind of course can provide much needed exposure to engineering design concepts to thegeneral undergraduate population. It also provided some ideas for improving the introductorypedagogy for engineering majors. The following is a detailed course description that was createdas part of the proposal for this new course to the Alpha program committee of the Office of FirstYear Programs.

Community College (MCC) didnot have direct access to the tools and equipment necessary to work on their assignedcoursework for their engineering classes. While the engineering program provided a room forthem to work in (henceforth called the “Engineering Commons”), this space was only equippedwith a few hand tools, crafting supplies like hot glue guns, leftover raw materials, a few tablesfor work, and some shelves for storage. As a result, students had to determine on their own how,where, and with what to build their required projects.However, two new spaces on campus were introduced in the Fall of 2024, providing engineeringstudents with options they did not previously have.

The students generally have a difficult timeunderstanding statistical behavior of propagating signals. Randomness generated three basicpropagation mechanisms can be used for an explanation as the objects in the signal path candynamically change and produce different paths at a given time. Thus, the signal strength at agiven distance from the transmitter can only be described by its statistical parameters. The firstof the statistical model introduced is log
