Description
I started teaching ELE 452 Antennas course for engineering undergraduates in the spring of 2022. As a strong advocate of active learning techniques, I was incorporating antenna simulations using a software called ANSYS-HFSS. HFSS has a lot of moving parts hence I needed a method to make sure the students follow the steps correctly, so I created worksheets with step-by-step instructions. Since I put a lot of time and effort into creating these worksheets, I published those as an open source digital collection via the USM Libraries. Currently, the readership of these worksheets is almost 4000 worldwide.
Backed by this demand, I am creating another digital collection of lightboard videos and few more worksheets for the ELE 351 Electromagnetic Fields course I am teaching. This collection will feature seven light board videos I created introducing the Maxwell’s Equations and their examples and an accompanied Ansys- Maxwell worksheet. The students can watch the lightboard video, download the worksheet and practice the virtual experiment.
