By performing a computer simulation of the laboratory assignment after the theoretical material is taught but before the students enter the lab, the students become more capable of recognizing incorrect lab results, resolving problems involving cabling, equipment adjustments, and nonideal equipment without assistance from the instructor, and validating correct results. This capability allows the students to concentrate on correlating the classroom and laboratory material, makes them more attentive to details in the lab, and provides them with more confidence in their technical capabilities. In this paper, the authors discuss how Hypersignal, a systems-oriented computer simulation package, has been integrated into a senior-level communications class and laboratory course. The results of formal and informal student surveys are given, showing the effectiveness of the simulation package as a bridge and learning tool. The concept of using simulation as a bridge between classroom and laboratory, used with appropriate software packages, can also enhance other academic disciplines such as electronics, AC and DC circuits, and control systems.","PeriodicalId":288591,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference - FIE '94","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114552153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increasing diversity of fiber applications suggests that conventional communications courses in fiber optics require augmentation so that students learn a wider range of applications of fiber technology. A fiber optic systems and applications course designed for both electronics and optical engineering technologists has been created at the Oregon Institute of Technology, in the Laser Optical Engineering Technology Department. The course is designed to illustrate the benefits of using fibers in communications and sensing, as well as to provide hands-on exposure to concepts of test, measurement, and calibration of fiber-optic components and instrumentation. The laboratory course consists of 5 lab stations: (1) optical fiber attenuation and it's impact on bit error rate, (2) wavelength division multiplexing, (3) the fiber optic gyroscope, (4) test, measurement, and calibration, and, (5) wavelength shifting of a thermoelectrically cooled diode laser. The 10 week course barely scratches the surface of optical fiber technology and applications. Additional experiments and courses may be developed, further exploring the range of fiber technology and applications.","PeriodicalId":288591,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference - FIE '94","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125524656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This computer interactive system is designed to provide individuals with information that can be used in their educational, career and life planning. Another purpose is to provide information on the types of problems and methods used by engineers to solve problems. The ESCAPE system has been developed to help undecided students learn more about engineering as a possible career. In order to do so, descriptions of the different fields of engineering and their functions in society are presented. Additionally, information is given about the organizations and publications typically read by the various types of engineers. Current data on salaries, employment opportunities, employment sector, and engineering functions are also included. Typical plans of study and descriptions of courses available at Purdue University (USA) are given so that a student can identify specific technical and general education courses needed to prepare for engineering careers. ESCAPE was originally developed using Macintosh's HyperCard stacks. To provide multimedia enhancement and multiple platform access, ESCAPE is now being developed using Mosaic through the Internet.","PeriodicalId":288591,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference - FIE '94","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127128589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
