Application Of Active Learning In Microwave Circuit Design Courses, Branimir Pejcinovic Jun 2013

Application Of Active Learning In Microwave Circuit Design Courses, Branimir Pejcinovic

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications and Presentations

Application of active learning in microwave circuit design courses. We have recently expanded our undergraduate labs to include four 20 GHz VNA-s and four high-speed TDR oscilloscopes. They were obtained initially for junior electromagnetics labs but this opens up obvious opportunities for more hands-on approaches to teaching and learning microwave circuit design. We have redesigned our two quarter, senior-level sequence with these goals in mind: a) Emphasize complete design cycle, from "paper" development, to simulation, to prototype development and testing, followed by more advanced prototyping, testing and redesign. b) De-emphasize face-to-face lecture and emphasize in-class activities and peer interaction c) …
