Challenges and strategies for electrical engineering education

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

This essay describes the creation and integration of 'active' teaching methods into an electrical engineering curriculum. Active teaching pushes students to do more than just listen and take notes. Rather, these strategies engage students in a variety of activities that encourage the development of their technical and problem-solving skills, including analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Examples of level-specific teaching activities for the freshman introductory course through senior and graduate-level electromagnetic electives are presented.
