Abstract :
Advances in the multimedia technology provide an opportunity to enhance learning in the university education. The paper presents a sample of multimedia learning objects and cooperative activities based on macromedia flash, questionmark perception, and mathworks Matlab, used to teach the theoretical concepts in a senior level course, digital signal processing in communication systems (DSP/CS). A study that compares the performance of students with and without multimedia access is also included.
