McInroy University of WyomingAbstractThe authors report here a modification to enhance a sophomore linear systems course. Studentsat the sophomore level are rather unsophisticated mathematically and need derivations anddiscussions of abstract concepts to be anchored in real systems that they can see and put theirhands on. To this end the authors report in this paper a set of experiments which provide thatfoundation.I. Introduction
