从2001年秋季开始，德州农工大学（Texas A&M University, College Station）的电气工程系通过在课程中引入更多的工程设计和采用基于webct的交互式作业提交系统，显著改变了ELEN 214电路理论课程的教学理念。本文将讨论在WebCT中使用Quiz工具来构建题库并将其发布到WebCT服务器上。一个例子，推导数学表达式，它描述电路的行为，并帮助定制每个学生的作业问题，讨论。换句话说，在一个200名学生的班级里，每个学生都有一个单独的家庭作业，其中有一组独特的问题，这些问题不会通过WebCT重复给其他人。一个由大四本科生组成的服务台帮助课程学生按时完成基于webct的作业。网络ct是本课程教学的重要组成部分。本文提出的方法可以适用于任何其他涉及数学计算的工程/科学课程。到目前为止，课程评估表明，学生们对电子和计算机工程作为职业更有动力和兴奋。
Beginning fall 2001, the Electrical Engineering Department at Texas A&M University, College Station, significantly altered the instructional philosophy of the ELEN 214 Electric Circuit Theory course by introducing more engineering design into the curriculum and adopting the WebCT-based interactive homework submission system. This paper will discuss the use of the Quiz tool within WebCT for the construction of question banks and their publication to a WebCT server. An example, deriving mathematical expressions, which describes electric circuit behavior and helps customize the homework problems to each individual student, are discussed. In other words, in a class of 200 students, each student is presented with an individual homework assignment with a unique set of problems not repeated to anyone else via WebCT. A help desk staffed by senior undergraduates assists the course students in completing the WebCT-based homework on time. WebCT is an essential ingredient in the delivery of the course. The approach presented in this paper can be adapted to any other course in engineering/science that involves mathematical calculations. So far, the course evaluations suggest that the students are more motivated and excited about electrical and computer engineering as a career.
