Resumen de Innovative approach to teaching radar and radiolocalization course
This contribution describes a set of actions devoted to increase the interest of the students on radar and radiolocalization-related courses, as well as covering the learning outcomes and competences defined for the course. After introducing thecontext of the radar course within a 5-year engineering degree, the course syllabus is detailed, focusing on the laboratoryprojects to be developed by the students, and proposed in the context of a teaching innovation project. Quality assessmentmechanisms are defined to verify the effectiveness of the adopted actions. Besides, the transition to the new 4-year EHEA-like engineering degree (plus a 2-year master degree) is discussed, comparing the radar course in both degrees and thestudents’ results. Although the course structure is conceived for a number of 15–20 students, this number was surpassed insome of the analyzed academic years, thus requiring an analysis of the problems derived from this situation. A briefdescription of radar courses taught at other higher education institutions is also provided in order to better put into contextthe proposed teaching innovation actions.
