Ronald Williams is a faculty member in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia. His teaching responsibilities have typically been in the area of digital systems, embedded computing, and computer design along with fundamental electrical engineering courses. He has recently been actively involved in the redesign of the undergraduate electrical engineering curriculum. His research interests have focused on embedded computing for control and signal processing.
Electrical engineering students should understand the relationship between the time domain and the frequency domain. Many students learn to apply analysis techniques in the respective domains without understanding the relationship between the domains. To address this and other challenges to learning, we have changed the content and format of several introductory courses so that more abstract concepts are first introduced earlier in the program in a practical context. This paper describes our new approach to introduce the relationship between the time domain and the frequency domain to students as they are just being introduced to circuits.
