Teaching Method

Outline:

Students will experientially understand the basics of electrical engineering through basic experiment exercises, and learn the basic attitude for engineering experiments, including researching independently and actively matters related to conducted experiments . They will also learn to be cooperative, considerate to others, etc., through collaborative work. The instructors hold classes jointly.

Style:

Lessons are done in the form of experiment exercises by teams. Quizzes will be conducted to test students' understanding.

Notice:

Students are expected to work independently and actively, and learn the fundamentals and basics of experiments. They should attend classes in appropriate lab attire, and always behave with their own and others' safety in mind. All assignments are required to be submitted. Students are expected to develop the habit of properly fulfilling responsibilities, such as cleaning and putting away the equipment used. Students are required to bring a calculator (any model) and an A4 notebook for the experiments. It doesn't need to be a new notebook, but loose leaf paper is not allowed.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for evaluation.
