| Abstract |
This paper discusses a trial of offering two senior/first-year graduate classes in a 7-week format, one following the other. Thus, a student could complete two courses (6-credits), dealing with two closely related topics, in one semester. In this case, the courses were Digital Communication Systems and Wireless Communications. During the first week of the first 7-week course, all of the in-class demonstrations and hands-on experiences needed to be shifted to online/remote delivery. This was primarily accomplished using the Amazon Web Services (AWS) AppStream, cloud computing system. The planned real-world signal capture and analysis project changed to an optional attendance of a technical conference. All of our students choose to attend this conference at their own expense. This paper will discuss these challenges and provide a selected assessment. |
