Teaching Strategies
The teaching in this course aims at establishing a good fundamental understanding of the areas covered
using:
 Formal face-to-face lectures
 Tutorials, which allow for exercises in problem solving and allow time for students to resolve
problems in understanding of lecture material.
 Laboratory sessions, which support the formal lecture material and also provide the student with
practical construction, measurement and debugging skills.
 Small periodic quizzes, to enable you to assess your understanding of the concepts.
