Development of Modular Interactive Learning and Assessing Tools for Electrical Circuit Core Course for Engineering Students

工程-电气（55）该项目正在开发一套基于计算机的学习模块，用于电气和计算机工程课程的入门电路课程。 每个模块引导学生通过四个学习阶段的特定概念。 第一阶段是辅导阶段，学生获得基本的想法和信息。 第二阶段是测验阶段，学生将被问及第一阶段提出的想法和信息，并立即反馈他们的表现。 第三阶段向学生提出一个设计问题，他们需要使用所提供的想法和信息。 最后一个阶段为学生提供了在真实的世界应用中使用概念的具体实例。 正在开发学习单元，并在一所四年制院校和一所社区学院部署。 该项目包括严格的形成性和总结性评价计划，由一名独立评价员协调质量和数量两个组成部分。 项目成果正通过会议和期刊出版物以及培训讲习班传播。

Engineering - Electrical (55)This project is developing a set of computer based learning modules for use in introductory circuits courses in electrical and computer engineering curricula. Each module leads the student through four learning phases for a particular concept. The first phase is a tutoring phase in which the student is given basic ideas and information. The second phase is a quizzing phase in which the student is quizzed on the ideas and information presented in the first phase and given immediate feedback on their performance. The third phase presents the student with a design problem in which they need to use the ideas and information provided. The final phase provides the students with concrete practical examples of the use of the concept in real world applications. The learning modules are being developed and deployed at a four-year institution and a community college. The project includes rigorous formative and summative evaluation plans with both qualitative and quantitative components coordinated by an independent evaluator. The projects results are being disseminated through conference and journal publications and through a training workshop.
