Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
The aim of this course is to learn how to handle the necessary instruments for learning electrical information engineering, and how to write reports. Several instructors will teach different experiment themes, and students will form groups of three to five people to conduct experiments on each theme. Suyama will teach matters related to measuring equipment, Enomoto matters related to electrical circuits, Kajimura sequencing, and Hosokawa DC bridges.
Style:
Students will form groups of three to five people to conduct experiments on each theme. The themes are provided in Contents and Method of Course. After completing experiments on each theme, students must write up a report on the experiment and submit it the instructor teaching that theme. They will have to revise it until they pass. This will help students learn the basics of writing up a report.
Notice:
Students will not be graded unless they have participated in all experiments. The overall evaluations will be based on the report submission and content (80%), and attitude toward the experiments (20%). The minimum score for a pass will be 60%. As this is an experiment course, submitting all reports is a prerequisite for evaluations. In addition, if all reports have not been received by the due date, students will not receive a passing grade. Students must clean the lab and put away the equipment. Precautions regarding the experiments will be given during the first week.
Students will not be graded unless they have participated in all experiments.
