Assigned Department Objectives

Teaching Method

Outline:
The goals of this course are to be able to explain the meaning and application of physical quantities such as voltage, current, and impedance in the AC circuit theory, which is the basis of electrical and electronic engineering, and be able to calculate them. The class also involves practice problem exercises, etc. to help students learn them.
Style:
Explanations will be given in line with the textbook. The class will be carried out using slides and worksheets. There will regularly be report assignments of problem exercises.
Notice:
This course's content will amount to 180 hours of study in total. These hours include learning time guaranteed in classes and the standard self-study time required for pre-study / review, and completing assignment reports. The overall evaluation will be based 80% on periodic exams, and 20% on report assignments including worksheets done during class. The reports will be mostly made up of the questions at the end of each chapter. The minimum score for a pass will be 60%.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.
