Abstract

This paper presents a collection of interactive Java modules for the purpose of introducing undergraduate DSP students to perceptual audio coding principles. This effort is part of a combined research and curriculum program funded by NSF that aims towards exposing undergraduate students to advanced concepts and research in signal processing. A computer laboratory with several supporting exercises and Java functions has been developed for use in our undergraduate DSP course. This exercise along with the accompanying Java software was assigned and assessed in the Summer of 2004 and will be reassessed in the Fall of 2004. Results of this assessment along with student comments are presented at the end of the paper.
