A Sound Cancellationproject was incorporated into a 2 hour-credit Electronics Specials Problems course. The activecontrol of sound is a solution by making an anti-noise for every known noise volume. The anti-noise signal will cancel itself along with the noise. A computer runs an adaptive noise controlalgorithm in assembly code. The program takes input

orhigher. Today, the combination of competitive market pressures, powerful computer hardwareand well designed software has resulted in CAD designers being asked to perform FEA early inthe design process. To enable these designers to perform FEA analysis, solid modeling softwarevendors have incorporated FEA into their solid modeling and design drafting packages.Unfortunately, while the software is easy to use, CAD designers usually do not have theeducation in specialized mechanics and high level mathematics necessary to understand thecalculations being performed by the FEA software. Even more important, without specialtraining, they do not have the ability to recognize the potential for errors in the FEA results.Errors may occur during the modeling

signal processing, etc. The current paradigm in the course instructionbuilds on a lecture prerequisite structure but ignores the need for a laboratory prerequisitestructure and integration. The laboratory for each individual course is designed to reinforcebasic concepts but typically has no larger purpose in the curriculum such as logically connectingto laboratory works completed in earlier or future courses. Since laboratory time is short andnew concepts must be emphasized, instructors are forced to use oversimplified set-ups forexperiments. As a result, students complete laboratory exercises in these courses withoutrealizing that they are all contributing to the development of truly integrated systems used in themodern industrial environment
