Secure Place

A new graduate from electrical engineering education must know about digital signal processing (DSP) to find a secure place in the competitive jobs market. Although this topic can be taught theoretically, its importance comes from practical applications. Therefore, students must be equipped with appropriate tools. Fortunately, DSP platforms serve this purpose. At Yeditepe University, we established a laboratory to guide students in real-time digital signal processing applications. We selected a Texas Instruments TMS320C6713 DSK platform for this purpose. In this study, we provide several laboratory applications on this platform. We also provide more advanced projects developed by our students which emerged from these applications. We observed that this laboratory improved the understanding of theoretical DSP concepts.

Work Done

There is a major trend in engineering education to provide students with realistic hands-on learning experiences. This paper reports on the results of work done to develop standardized test instruments to use for student learning outcomes assessment in an experiential hands-on manufacturing engineering and technology environment. The specific outcomes targeted for assessment are those defined under the MILL (Manufacturing Integrated Learning Laboratory) Manufacturing Competency Model. In a unique feature aimed at experiential learning, the test instruments incorporate the use of a physical manipulative to evaluate attainment of particular hands-on skills. The resulting standardized tests have been subjected to extensive psychometric analysis. The results of the analysis indicate excellent structure of the test instruments. The test instruments have shown high levels of stability, internal consistency, and reliability. These tests can be used as instruments for outcomes assessment to help document attainment of targeted learning outcomes for program assessment, accreditation, and other assessment purposes.
