Motivated by the ubiquity of MATLAB in most engineeringdisciplines, this paper develops a general framework for using the MATLAB Webserver toaccomplish mastery learning in engineering courses. Essentially, the MATLAB Webserverserves as a replacement for human proctors. With minimal programming, instructors caneffectively harness MATLAB’s web interface and delivery tools to promote mastery learningand improve student education.To help illustrate mastery learning with the MATLAB Webserver, this paper details a pilot studyinvolving electrical engineering students enrolled in a junior-level signals and systems course atNorth Dakota State

Buchanan Middle Tennessee State University/Oregon Institute of Technology AbstractIn circuit analysis courses, RLC circuit resonance is a topic that is difficult to teach withoutdemonstration. The physical demonstration of this topic requires several kinds of circuitcomponents and equipment. Some of these devices may not be available in a typical engineeringor engineering technology department laboratory.This paper presents teaching RLC circuit resonance with Electronics Workbench

Further,time to degree completion for engineering doctoral students is low—on average about 5years—since engineering research is typically funded on grants or industry sponsorship thatencourages results and publication. The culture of engineering departments, even thoughcultures vary between departments and institutions, is different than those of other science,technology, and math departments, which often have different structures for research groups,mentorship, and expectations of graduate students. Therefore, we posit that we must studyengineering graduate students separately from students in other disciplines, though
