Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
All LOs involve lecture, tutorial, practical laboratory and directed study and independent self-study. The module is delivered with the emphasis on practical aspects and applications. The students are provided with typed lecture notes and tutorials and encouraged to use the library and other available resources. Most up-to-date equipment and software packages available in industry are used to deliver the module. The students are encouraged to work both as individuals using their own initiatives and also as part of a team. Extensive technical literature is available, textbooks and published research papers, which can be used both for teaching and the students self-learning. Copies of numerous textbooks are available in Edinburgh Napier University Libraries. The students will be provided with the list of the most advanced and appropriate text books available on the subject. Tutorial sessions are divided into general class room tutorial sessions and laboratory based (MATLAB/SIMULINK) tutorial sessions. The assignment for this module is based on a real practical application and involves the design and simulation of a signal-processing system and formal report writing (LO1, 3 & 4). The critical analysis of the results is one of the main requirements. The combination of lectures, class room tutorial sessions, laboratory tutorial sessions and an assignment based on a practical application will ensure that the students have the opportunity to attain all of the learning outcomes.
