Effective Learning and Teaching Strategies for Microwave Engineering [Speaker's Corner]

The ideal combination of teaching/learning strategies includes detailed derivations of important formulas in classroom lectures, plus well-designed laboratory practice to help students understand the physics behind the theories. For example, a 1-h lecture on microwave network parameters combined with a 2-h laboratory for measuring a microwave bandpass filter’s S-parameters with a modern vector network analyzer would be an excellent knowledge module for understanding the following important conceptual
