Systems View of Electronics

Description:
This learning module is provided by Work-Ready Electronics and covers a systems view of electronics. Work-Ready Electronics modules are intended to be used either independently or integrated with current electronics curricula in college programs. This module is divided into three sections: Content, Knowledge Probes, and Learning Activities. 

Contents:
The Content section includes six PDF documents that cover the following topics: circuit/equipment specifications, control systems, electronic processes, interfaces, power systems, and a systems view of electronics.

Six Knowledge Probes are included in this learning module. The knowledge probes include learning objectives and a short quiz. Each Knowledge Probe corresponds to a topic covered in the Content section.

The Learning Activities section includes two labs and one performance assessment. The labs are titled Designing a System and Laser Pointer System and include the following sections: Lab Summary, Lab Goal, Learning Objectives, Special Safety Requirements, Lab Preparation, and more. The performance assessment includes 66-multiple choice questions. This section also includes four additional files related to the Laser Pointer System lab. 

This learning module also includes a 1-page PDF document of print references.

For orientation purposes Systems View of Electronics.pdf is included as a separate attachment and offers a sample of the type of material included in this learning module.

Below is a list of the files contained within the .zip attachment. Files are .pdf, .exe, .dll, .sys, and .VXD. The size of each file is included in parenthesis.
