methods focus on the functionality of systemblocks to improve students’ understanding of system performance parameters. Positive resultshave been observed in strengthening students knowledge development on certain subjects.The systems approach has been applied to the development of engineering algorithms. In theSpring semester of 2005, we initiated a project in a Digital Signal Processing class toimplement a Matlab R algorithm that would produce lossless decomposition and reconstructionof a digital image using wavelets. The reason we chose this topic is twofold. First, the projectallows the student to subdivide two complicated processes into managable system blocks. Thistraining will be helpful when the ECET student graduates and takes on the

Students have access to FFT functions and blocks throughMATLAB and SIMULINK as well as FFT algorithms already developed for the TI DSKevaluation boards used in lab. They could easily use these tools with little or no understandingof the FFT algorithm. However, I feel it is important for them to understand the tools they are Page 11.1365.10using to develop

been discussed by engineering professors and practicing engineers since theadvent of computer software used to solve engineering problems is this: should the user of thissoftware understand the mathematics, the assumptions, and the algorithms which are utilizedwithin the software? As the software evolves to higher and higher order, this question becomesmore important. Within our undergraduate Mechanical Engineering curriculum it is certainlynecessary that our students be introduced to such software and reach a certain degree ofcompetency in its use because their future employers expect this. Further, such softwareallows the solution of more and more complex problems, such as non-linear problems, forexample, which leads to more realistic, more

Towards this end, lecture topics are designed for students with nocomputer graphics background, and focus on solving specific computing problems using skillslearned from a variety of computer engineering courses (e.g. digital logic, computer architecture,software design, embedded systems). As part of the laboratory component, students are presentedwith a series of bi-weekly design challenges that are geared towards implementing a particularmodule in the 3D graphics pipeline (with both hardware and software support) using anFPGA-based hardware

. Understanding the audience and courseplanning are extremely important in developing an effective blended course10. It is not theblending of the classroom and the Web that makes a course effective; it is the right blend for thegoals and objectives of the course11. The emphasis is on the learning and not the technology.Benefits of a blended courseThe popularity of blended courses is only going to increase. Seaman12 conducted a survey in2002 of over fifty institutions and found that 7% of the students were enrolled in a blendedcourse and that growth is expected to increase to 20% by 2005.

Thegoal of these laboratory experiments will be to reinforce the lecture topics of computerarchitecture for technology students. Students in technology curriculums need toestablish proper methodologies for understanding computer performance with statisticalanalysis using software tools for benchmarking and analyzing computer systemconfigurations. This will be accomplished as a part of the laboratory experience.These performance measurements include properly analyzing the CPU, memory, bus andoperating system in terms of similarities and differences

Faculty in theCollege of Engineering at Idaho State University have developed, administered, and analyzed asurvey asking practicing engineers their usage and required conceptual understanding of certainmath topics to perform their job functions.

The need forsuch a course came about as a result of a new ECE curriculum, which emphasized junior andsenior level elective courses to achieve depth in at least one of the ECE specialization areas. Thenew course was intended as a catalyst encouraging the students to consider their interests indifferent ECE specializations as early as possible to help them in choosing their elective courses.At the time, the ECE faculty participating in the development effort for this course was stronglyagainst creating just a survey course, which would most likely lack the rigor of a typicalintroductory course.
