8. Course Objectives
Course Objectives Diodes
Electronic circuits are the fundamental building blocks of modern
electronic devices. They are composed of various electronic Diodes are semiconductor devices that allow
components, each with its unique function and characteristics. Thecurrent to flow in one direction (forward bias)
primary objectives of electronic circuits can be broadly categorized
and block it in the opposite direction (reverse
into signal processing, amplification, and power control.
bias).
Transistors
Transistors are semiconductor devices that

can amplify or switch electronic signals.
Op-amps
Operational amplifiers (op-amps) are highly

versatile integrated circuits that can perform
various mathematical operations on electronic
signals.

9. Teaching and Learning Strategies
1
Strategy Active Learning Techniques:
Problem-solving exercises:
 Assigning problems that require applying theoretical concepts to analyze and

design circuits.
 Case studies: Analyze real-world applications of electronic circuits to solidify
understanding.
 Group projects: Collaborative projects can promote teamwork and problem-
solving skills while applying learned concepts.
 Class simulations: Utilize circuit simulation software to allow students to experiment
with virtual circuits before building them physically.
Laboratory Activities:
 Hands-on lab sessions are crucial for applying theoretical knowledge to

practical circuit building and testing.
 Provide clear lab instructions and pre-lab exercises to prepare students.
 Encourage troubleshooting skills by incorporating challenges in the labs.
Assessment Strategies:
 Homework assignments: Regular assignments can assess understanding of

concepts covered in lectures and provide practice for exams.
 Quizzes: Short quizzes can be used to gauge student comprehension and
identify areas needing additional focus.
 Midterm and final exams: Comprehensive exams assess overall
understanding and application of learned material.
 Lab reports: Reports document lab work, test results, and analysis,
promoting critical thinking and written communication skills.
Additional Resources:
 Provide a list of recommended textbooks, online resources, and reference

materials to support independent learning.
 Encourage office hours and offer opportunities for individual assistance.
