Teaching with Technology: A Strategy for Pedagogy and Practicality using CAE Software Loren Sumner, Renee Rogge Mercer University / Rose-Hulman Institute of TechnologyEngineering schools across the country face the growing challenge of adapting to rapidlychanging technology. Computer aided engineering (CAE) software exemplifies this trend. TheMercer University School of Engineering initiated a three-year project to establish anengineering analysis center utilizing CAE resources in undergraduate education.

A series of studio projects have been developed, each of which requiresimplementation and testing of DSP algorithms on data received by student-owned SDRs. Datasources include signals of opportunity as well as instructor-generated test signals. The result is amobile learning environment in which students can visualize and apply abstract theoreticalconcepts, implement real-time algorithms, and rapidly test their designs using real-world data.IntroductionSoftware-defined radio (SDR) technology has transformed

Controlling the manufacturing ofelectrospun fibers presented a unique engineering problem that could integrate concepts frommultiple bioengineering courses including biomechanics, circuits, computer aided design (CAD),thermodynamics, and biomaterials into a single engineering design project with real-worldapplications. This project served as the basis for a new junior-level design course that will betterprepare students for their senior capstone
