Abstract
Traditional computer networking courses are primarily based on lectures and include a few TCP/IP network socket programming assignments. Students may not know how to apply what they have learned in the classroom to solve real-world problems. This paper presents several interesting laboratory experiments to provide students with hands-on experiences in low-cost small office/home office (SOHO) networking technologies, including SOHO Router/Firewall, Wi-Fi Wireless LAN, HomePlug Powerline Communication, and HomePNA Phoneline Networking. The feedback from students is encouraging. The result of the assessment tests also shows that the hands-on projects have had a positive impact on student learning and comprehension. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
