Abstract

A description of current practices for teaching digital signal processing (DSP) technical courses to hardware and software engineers is presented. Current practices along with a discussion of the issues and tradeoffs are presented. The pedagogical concerns, issues, and solutions are discussed. An instructional design model is presented that allows the instructor to cover the material and meet the course objectives, yet allows for individual learner needs and alternative topics. A set of rules for designing a successfully technical workshop is presented. The outlook for the future is discussed in terms of computer-based training, remote-site learning, and satellite-based training
