It is well recognized that Electromagnetics is one of the most important disciplines yet is also a difficult subject for undergraduate students to grasp. In the literature it has been advocated to incorporate real-world examples of applications to help improve student learning. In this work, we propose an approach that is complementary to the real-world examples one. In our approach, we encourage the students to extend the material from what has been covered in the class through participation in individual project. Positive results are obtained in terms of comprehension of the material, improvement of mathematical skills, as well as buildup of confidence in the participants.
